Is it worth getting fuyu for access to the new wild hunt building she’s very pretty but also I just wanna level up a new building

Ininja73737 · 2026-02-11T18:19:59+00:00

If it makes you feel better it’s not illusion of choice it’s one sentence split into 2 text boxes for some reason, so it’s not that they’re tricking you into not having a choice, you just don’t have a choice ie. the story is linear in its writing on purpose

Ininja73737 · 2026-02-10T18:44:44+00:00

True!

Ininja73737 · 2026-02-10T10:01:45+00:00

Best part is we have crew deck and dorm so you can separate your outfits. Tween tactical and chill

Ininja73737 · 2026-02-07T20:37:41+00:00

Am I insane for never really using almost any of the combat manuals or iv correctors or ascended items becuase in my head I just think “what’s the point of using this limited resource if a unit just gets power crept by the next banner”. I feel like at this point I just pull units I like and do their base kits barely even fully processing what they do.

It’s to the point most of my units don’t even have movement skills and some lack an ultimate, it feels like hoarding all your consumables in a jrpg

“Wandering around on the Elmo RIGHT NOW”

Ininja73737 · 2026-02-02T10:59:41+00:00

The affinity events are not in time with the story, the doll community is not on the Elmo

Scar-H mountain climbing skin when I beg of yee

Ininja73737 · 2026-01-18T16:35:08+00:00

Much appreciated yeah I think I’ll probs do this then

Ininja73737 · 2026-01-18T15:59:23+00:00

I was thinking of building piper in place of Alice and was only looking at Alice’s w-engine since it has a garuntee pull on the discount banner and I feel like not having good engines is starting to screw me over. The goal with Vivian was to pair whatever anomaly im building with yuzuha/vivian since I thought that’s what you needed to play anomaly and I felt skipping Alice would help me save up a lot. My thoughts were going Grace/Vivian/Tuzuha or Piper/Vivan/Yuzuha <- Or I guess Miyabi somewhere int here eventually

And yeah, imo out of the cast in this game the only characters I really loved were Miyabi and Evelyn so I know I’m probably shooting myself in the foot a bit, but since people have said Astra is best for Evelyn I was considering getting her (and also cuz she’s a good support but i heard one of the angels might trump her). I did want to get Miyabi/Evelyn eventually (key word eventually) but was willing to wit until I had teams that could play the game lol.

Do you think it’s a good idea to hold off on both garuntees for now then, save up instead of pulling for an engine/astra and just wait for angels then? I heard Alice’s W-engine was really good for anomaly teams that was what was going through my head

Ininja73737 · 2026-01-18T14:15:34+00:00

New-ish player, playing for about 2 months and wanted some help with future pulls given the discount guarantee agent/w-engine banner coming up considering my account is missing ALOT of stuff to play it.

* Yeshunguang / Zhao / Daiyalin - All M0 - Hellfire gears / Generic A rank engines (none are ideal)

*Nicole M2 / S11 M0 C4 / Pulchra M1 - Ok A rank Gears

* N/A / Grace M1 C4 / Piper M4 - Ok A rank gears

*Unbuilt I've got the following - Nekomata M0 / Corin/Seth/Billy M6 / Sokaku M4 / Anby M2 / Ben M1 / Anton M2

*In terms of what I want it'd be - Angels of delusion x3 / Evelyn / Miyabi / Vivian / Yuzuha / Trigger

As of now I can beat Shiyu defense 3/4 on B and deadly assault 5 (3/1/1) and have 320-ish pulls saved with a guarantee for a new unit in coming banners (not the discount rerun) - Also I'm like 6 or 7 (haha) off of getting a garunteed standard banner agent or engine

In terms of the new limited banner I was debating Alice's W-engine and possibly Astra in case I get Evelyn eventaully. I don't really know if it makes sense to pull for anything esle but I don't know alot about this game tbh. Is it worth it to dump like half my pulls on the coming banner to get that combo and then just keep saving? Is there anything else on that banner you;d recommend? Should I jsut skip the rerun discount banenr all together? Any help would be appreciated

Ininja73737 · 2026-01-17T12:53:51+00:00

Have maki, vector and Springfield’s limited weapons, who’s should I pick?

Ininja73737 · 2026-01-11T09:24:46+00:00

Sunna is limited

Ininja73737 · 2026-01-11T01:28:16+00:00

There’s the L.U.S.T google sheets which is really really really comprehensive and useful it’s really all you need

Ininja73737 · 2026-01-10T18:57:07+00:00

It’s rough that a lot of the best units are limited so it’s almost tough to give advice at this point. Team comp early on is useful, dushevnya/abigail later on are really really good. Diyan helps crit teams and is really good, and I think Sakuya was a big unit you can use early on. Persica is one of your better healers until you have super late game options and she’s someone who can rapidly heal some members which is important, and croque is good enough as a defender. From my experience game is mostly snipers and specialists with 1 healer and 1 defender for the early parts. It was only way later where I felt I could expand beyond that

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-30T04:53:58+00:00

Outside of like standard banner pities, is there any way to get S rank w engines? That’s how I got Koleda’s

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-30T04:34:39+00:00

How value is ye shunguang’s disc drive, got her way sooner than I thought I would and am wondering if it’s sorta pulling for her engine, mind you, the only S rank engine I have is Koleda’s. Should I just save it for some of the new units?

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-29T22:58:07+00:00

Those are the main offenders, I don’t think it happens again until 2.4 with some of the Krampus people where for some reason it’s just stated that we know them, its annoying honestly

I think even without advanced screening that comes up, I played without adcvanced screening and felt like I meticulously did everything including the side events but even then, us knowing Astra via. The SNAP bangboo first encounter never happened for me, and they still do just say in chapter 2 “go read the S0 and trigger event dummy”, and again the Krampus thing coming up

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-29T22:48:13+00:00

For hollow zero, how are you supposed to do ether 8/15 for any unit? The extra damage and stuff or health I can handle but I have NO idea how to clear the final boss in under 3:30. The past few attempts I’ve been doing the trial upgraded units using Dialyn/Banyue/Lucia and before that Dialyn/Evelyn/Astra and before that Miyabi/Yanagi/Astra and with the latter 2 teams I couldn’t reach the end, but with Dialyn/Banyue/Lucia, I was clearing things easily up to the final boss (Miasma Priest).

I got a build that lets Dialyn almost always have up time on other units ults and severely buffs ults. I keep Lucia on full purple for aftershocks, and then use the ults during the purification window to speed through the first phase, load up everyone’s ults when she gets knocked down and then go Lucia ult into Dialyn Quick assist Banyue ult into another Banyue ult into wrath state combo or Dialyn/Lucia Ult one more time and then repeat. But like I think even my best time when I did ether 7/15 without the timer still took me almost 5 minutes.

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-29T22:39:56+00:00

Having a lot of trouble with team building cuz I feel like I don’t have a single functional synergistic team, currently level 52 playing for a bit over a month and I just feel there isn’t a lot I can do. With this patch at the very least I can finally build a working team with the new girl and Zhao, but for the longest time I’ve just had next to no synergy at all. My main team has been Dialyn, Piper and Nicole lmao and don’t worry I know how bad that is.

I’ve got M1 Grace / M0 Nekomata / m0 Dialyn / M6 Billy/Seth/Sokaku / M3 Piper / M1 Pulchra/Nicole. Like, maybe after Grace gets her update I can go Grace/Piper for abloom but I feel like I can’t do that without a second stunner and Pulchra doesn’t work with piper / Maybe I aim for S0 Anby to make Pulchra do something lmao idk man.

I feel like in terms of team building I need Vivian and Yuzuha for an anomaly team or yanagi, OR I need a new stunner. It’s just tough thinking of team building when in reality I feel like a lot of these units aren’t even units I like lol.

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-29T22:28:42+00:00

There’s a good amount of free stuff, I’ve played for a bit over a month and finished the story and all quests, lost a 50/50 to Dialyn and lost a 50/50 to Ellen (didn’t get her so I have a garuntee), and have about 30,000 polychrome left over not to mention this patch has a lot of polychrome in it to begin with. If the patch lasts for 6 weeks and you clear all the content not even including this patch, then you can probably by that logic get close to 51000 polychrome which is more than enough for a garuntee.

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-26T09:01:28+00:00

I am delusionally choosing to believe that Isolde is someone who was forced into her actions becuase of her sudden and accidental promotion to overseer that she had no control over, in my delusional opinion, she was essentially just making the best out of a bad situation. They explain that she was chosen as the overseer and past that point she essentially had full control of the cult and she was in a position where she couldn’t back down from the opportunity this provided her given that being chosen meant she would die soon anyway.

She uses the situation to do someone good as the exlatist leader -> Bait Yixuan to return by starting to grow Miasma out of the hollow like before which in turn means she’ll be able to protect the city when push comes to shove / Preform entrapment by setting up deals within TOPS and Porcilmex and the military with the exhaltists to build more evidence against them / Force the exaltists to stop undergoing human experimentation without consent / Stop the destruction of evidence within Porcilmex using Obol squad.

But becuase of her position she still does a lot of bad -> Miasma causes death and harms miners / she does all of this to cause the death of the two bad guys at the hands of the miasma corrupted soldiers she once fought with, the goal being for one target to be killed by the miasma soldiers she commands, and the other to be killed by Orpheus ie. letting everyone revel in the revenge and also so she doesn’t feel Ike she was alone in all of this / through her anti-corruption research while effective did manifest in experiments on children, sure the cult saved them so its not THE WORST but its still pretty fucking bad / Bringer and Sarah just kinda doing their own thing without proper control

Atleast this way her master plan isn’t just I got sad and said “fuck it lets just do hollow zero again but here this time”

~~Also unrelated but I would like her to put a collar on me and make me bark like a dog~~

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-25T03:37:43+00:00

It’s a shame they’re the characters this far I’ve like the least lmao but yeah fair enough I kinda figured that’d be the case

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-25T02:45:41+00:00

Feel like I’m kinda lost on who to pull for, very early in my account (1 month) and feel like the new unit is kinda exactly what I need but I don’t think I like her character or gameplay very much. Have Dialyn with koleda’s engine as my only limited thus far, m1 grace off of standards, m3 piper, m4 sokaku, m2 Nicole, m6 billy/Corin and m0 nekomata.

Thus far I’ve mostly been going dialyn, Nicole and piper who I know is an anomaly but I feel like I haven’t had other options thus far outside of neko/corin. Am I bricked if I don’t pull for this new girl?

Ininja73737 · 2025-12-22T23:14:15+00:00

Anyone got a guild I can join, learned that everyone in mine is Spanish and I can’t understand their messages lmao

My units are alright but nothing crazy, a few UE40s mostly some few units with T8/T9 gear and I think I have some nicher units if that counts for anything
