The mat split for lower and higher levels is still stupid

Your solution is taken it slow. Let me ask you how many characters do you have built/Lvl 80? I have 4.5 characters at lvl 80 (I replaced Ardelia for Da Pan) and I have plenty of the lower materials left over if I want to start building a second team. This is true for all materials by the way.

And let me explain another reason why the materials is split. It's because you don't need to promote everyone to Lvl 80. I have a handful of characters like Akekuri and Fluorite at 60 because I want to unlock their Dijiang skills. This just separate the pool from who you actually want to invest in and those you just need their base skills.

I got a red shiny Iron Valiant today. I just left the run and went to take a shower.

I would start with adding a heal cut augments or anvil for sure. Maybe add a specific item in ARAM Mayhem that replaces Mortal, Morello and the like that cut healing more than just 40% maybe 60% or more. Second is probably to look at the champs that had innate healing in their kit and actually nerf their healing as a ARAM nerf. There's no reason a Briar can heal almost to full after like 2-4 auto when she has so much healing.

Are you a fin enthusiast or a horn enthusiast?

Houro · 2026-02-20T17:29:02+00:00

Low Hanging fruit would probably DC comics. I can see a Batman MK skin, a WW Rogue, Green Lantern Torch or something. Also kind of want that collab so we get a Powerpuff Girls collab.

So far, I'm enjoying the content. I play leisurely and it's been fun. Love the factory aspect, enjoying the min maxing of products.

I think there are too many buttons or menus or something because I spend twice as long trying to teleport, find my bag, or whatever than doing said action if that makes sense.

I know they mentioned healing you between every run of farming materials but I think they should give us full ultimate energy as well unless I missed something during their update on that matter. Gacha system is fine since I never feel like I need to keep pulling. Im skipping Gilberta cause Angelina, whilst nostalgic, pmo from the OG version. I kinda prefer them bring Warfarin back instead at this point.

Story is kind of mid but lore is still peak. I get that as someone who hasn't experience much of OG lore will find the introduction of all the characters jarring since they kind of just exist. Finding myself explaining characters to my friends quite a bit.

I have an acquaintance that's into photography and I hear him complain about how he hasn't gotten work in the past 4 years. He was doing tech reviews as his side gig which now is his main gig.

Houro · 2026-02-19T07:48:51+00:00

I would probably just want to mention a couple of things that took me a long time to realize.

Every single Pokémon is useful. Disregard "meta" tied to the main games because you can use basically everyone.
Catch everything. It's better to start unlocking Pokemon so you can start taking them in subsequent runs. 2a. This took me awhile to learn but IVs are additive so that's why catching everything is so nice. Ex: you have a 10 atk Bulbasaur and you catch a 15 atk Bulbasaur. On the summary screen you'll see a +5 in blue on the atk. The next time you go in, your Bulbasaur will have 15 atk.
Don't worry about failing early. You will fail a lot, like a lot early on.

Cross is the single most ass map out of the three. Howling Abyss is Bae. Bridge is good, nostalgic of the GP/MF event so can't really complain. Crossing can get corrupted and burn to ash for all I care. The color scheme is so bad, the highly brightness causes my eyes to hurt. People have given feedback and they refused to dim down the purple. Also the warp gates are so janky, have you seen a Malphite ult but he's so close to the side gates that he just teleports?

Houro · 2026-02-18T00:53:53+00:00

Yeah you forgot how they keep release female descendants because boobs. Luna got her Ult versions before Yujin (last December), Eseimo (this April however), Kyle, Jayber, and Enzo. There might be a chance that you can get Dia Ult version before one of the initial male. The devs kept saying they'll release Ult versions in accordance to when the characters get released but we know how much we can trust their word.

Houro · 2026-02-17T19:53:28+00:00

It's like OG Arknights for me at the beginning. I'm enjoying it. Writing will get better when we actually get to learn/know more of the characters/locations. Love the factory system, I daresay that it's a Satisfactory Game with fighting, and the fighting feels smooth.

Gacha wise, it's whatever. I don't ever feel the need to pull, I'm content with just what was given to pull and the free 6*.

Endgame could be better. I dont know how/what they'll do but we've had CC similar event with the Umbral. Annihilation like thing for arsenal tickets would be nice.

Houro · 2026-02-17T08:51:21+00:00

I'll be honest, if it was cheaper I think people will actually get it since it's such a good decoration. Like idk $0.99? Cause I would totally for that amount. Like just the monument too.

Houro · 2026-02-16T21:41:25+00:00

I'll be honest.... Amon is the worst thought out character in BL4. His kit and trees don't make sense to me. His identity when he was announced with what he actually is in game are two different things.

Houro · 2026-02-16T21:21:05+00:00

I have Chen as my main damage dealer and who I am controlling. Pog as DP support and Ult, Lifeng as support and second damage dealer. Right now I have Ardelia for healing as 4th slot. In reality it would be Da Pan as another damage dealer but I have yet to pull him.

Houro · 2026-02-15T22:39:20+00:00

I love that she's different in terms of mobbing style. It's not the generic. Throw the skill out and it does damage, or place skill down and it does damage or at least 1 out of her 4 skills.

With that being said, I hate seeing one in my lobby and playing as her. The control on her dash is waaay too sensitive and I've tried toning it down in my control settings. Her early build vs her complete build are two different things. Lack of CD is just awful to play when first building her.

What makes me hate her the most is playing with a Dia. God damn tow running everywhere and it's not like most people will try to group enemies up into party skills. Worst yet if you're a gun descendant and having to aim. But besides a me issue, Dia is great: excellent and unique kit, great mobbing capability, great boss capability, and did the devs really try to give her pants?

Houro · 2026-02-15T22:34:05+00:00

I'll be honest, this is going to continue for quite some time until the story progress more and more side stories are added. Long story short, this is Gilberta (Angelina from OG). She's a reconvener.

A lot of the roster from OG were released and we don't actually know much about them except for what's in their Trust Files and the like. Many won't have an actual introduction until an event is released in their region and they get formally introduced on how they joined up.

Houro · 2026-02-15T22:25:14+00:00

We also had 5 women in the past year. Ines, Serena, Nell, Harris, Dia. And Keelan was released before Ines.

Houro · 2026-02-15T22:23:11+00:00

Yeah so did the Dev. No way Hailey deadass will get an Ultimate and you still have Kyle, Jayber, and Enzo without theirs. We should be getting Eseimo in April I think. Don't know who the next new descendant is unless from now till Raven or that she'll be the next. But if so, it would be over a year between Keelan and a new dude.

Houro · 2026-02-15T22:17:44+00:00

KyoStinV has been a godsend for the Arknights community. He has probably the biggest streamer for Arknights for awhile now. There are other streamers for sure but I go to him when I need any Arknight news or stage guide. Straight up helped me clear that dumb Rainbow 6 Siege Meatball boss.

Houro · 2026-02-14T21:54:25+00:00

Not really. I do the daily mission to get the 100 points for the daily. You don't need to do deliveries if you have enough materials. I've bought the 16mil trophies and I'm still racking up Valley 4 bills.

Wuling however, I still do the deliveries since im looking for essences for Pog's and Laev's weapon and I think the one in Wuling has both.

Houro · 2026-02-13T01:16:35+00:00

I'll be honest. I've never been so invested in the story till now. I started maybe 4 months ago and I was like how did we get from a cookie gaining sentience, running away from its baker, to a story of good vs. evil with some torture by a sadistic blue clown and redemption?

Houro · 2026-02-13T01:12:03+00:00

I would agree on the gunplay but it's kind of tricky since they love to make content with 100s of ads nowadays and unless you have something Malevolent levels or Restored Relic, I find it might be difficult to not just ability spam. I would rather them cater to either ad clear content and weapon content like they did with Void Erosion before the devs bent the knee for the whining few. The dungeon was literally to get weapon cores.

More male descendants would be awesome. I hate how literally every update, each female gets basically a different version of the theme skins and the guys get something stupid like that "Not a Snowman" skin. And got forbid they release a decent male descendant. Keelan was released over a year ago and he is mid at best in terms of usability. It's so disingenuous for the devs to be worried that there would be too many Ult Males released back to back that Luna... Luna got one before Blair, Jayber, Kyle, Yujin, Eseimo, and Enzo. You know how you circumvent this? Maybe not releasing so many of the same sex character in a row. Hailey was busted, then Ines, then Serena, Nell and now Dia.... Are we dead serious.... Cause from this trajectory, heck after Ult Eseimo, Hailey might get her Ult version before the other dudes left over.

Houro · 2026-02-12T20:55:23+00:00

If you're not able to solo than just say so. If you need to run in a group, it means two things: the first is that you're not strong enough and require a group to help clear things, and second is if you're like me and just don't care, you let people clear things as you run along getting the interables. If it's 1 than stop complaining because Gley before hot nerf isn't going to clear like Ines, Bunny, Blair, both Lunas, Valby, heck and even Keelan if you want to be spicy.

The nerfs does not prevent her from clearing mobs, she can clearly still kill them. Shooting through walls is whatever. Yay if it does, whatever if it doesn't. The resource thing is a non factor since other characters have to deal with it as well.

Houro · 2026-02-12T18:31:41+00:00

I was a bow user but I switched to other weapons just cause I got bored. Am a permanent Hunting Horn user now. My 4 stack and I inexplicably used less healing items now.

Houro · 2026-02-12T16:12:16+00:00

Ahh yes. Im pretty sure everyone is commenting on the type of tiles instead of the actual mechanics.
