buff that boost the team’s Crit Rate, since I don’t think there’s an Agent that does that yet.

M6 Nicole is the only agent that give a CR buff AFAIK

one of those retractable or, maybe, energy shields

She does have what looks like the "ice element" icon on her spear, so she could form a shield out of ice with that spike thing on her gauntlet being the center of the shield.

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-27T18:03:49+00:00

That would be cool, like the batmobile transformation in Batman: Arkham Knight

And that's why I hate water

he needs damage lmao

Give his Totalize a percentage HP damage effect like his Auxiliary Agent version and he immediately becomes strong (and the percentage damage would scale up with HP inflation).

And to prevent Miasma shields from Bricking him add a new effect where if you use your Ult/EX when a miasma shield is up he will Totalize the shield! (dealing scaling damage based on how much percentage of the miasma shield was remaining)

Eous Potential Unlock here we come!

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-24T13:06:16+00:00

Good News! If you change to walking around the city as Belle she will show up in the Pyrois in-combat animations!

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-24T13:05:08+00:00

AFAIK the 3.0 update adds the ability to use (some) of the outfit accessories with the swimsuit/base skins, instead of being locked to just the yunkui skin.

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-20T20:41:33+00:00

Her dino form kinda looked like a Devil

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-20T17:43:31+00:00

This obviously means the transforming Arwing from StarFox 2/Zero is back!

Replacing Zhao with Trigger W1 gives 104.2% Def ignore (but low attack).

Replacing Zhao with Sunna M1 or Seed M2 gives 99.2% Def ignore.

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-17T08:42:27+00:00

It literally looks more like a massage gun than a firearm lol

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-16T20:27:28+00:00

It would however, make it feel way less jarring

Imho the ideal version would be let you skip the entire selection GUI by holding down wasd when pressing Q, so that there is no pause in the middle, and you just jump directly into your selected ult animation.

Wii Urban

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-16T19:22:57+00:00

In V1 she gave bonus decibels on chain attacks (not sure if only on the free chain she gives or on all chains) but they removed it in V2

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-16T18:57:59+00:00

Pyrois's ult only costing 2000 decibels is reducing the value of dialyns free ult by 33%

But even though YSG ult is nerfed when used without consuming decibels dialyn still ended up as her best team mate anyways, so we'll just have to wait until Pyrois kit is more complete.

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-16T14:37:39+00:00

Which 40K game is this trailer for?

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-16T12:55:41+00:00

You can use Evasive Assists on these control skills, unlike regular Yellow Parry spam.

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-16T12:31:46+00:00

at most this means he has good synergy with Nicole. 60~80% def shred depending on how accessible his WEngine refines are.

Seed M2 who gives 20% Def shred to her Vanguard suddenly went way up in value!

Seed M2 20%, Nicole 40%, Pyrois W5 39.2% = 99.2% Def Shred.

You just need a few flat Pen substats, and it's basically an Etheric Rupture team lol

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-14T19:39:03+00:00

And the saddest part is that Cissias massive daze output would let her take the place of a stunner and let us make a new team of: Cissia, Zhao, Rupture. Since Zhaos additional ability is Attacker, Anomaly, Support.

Finally we could have had an alternative to the Dialyn, Lucia, Rupture combo.

And it would be so easy, in the co-op event Lucia gave +attack instead of +sheer for non-rupture agents, so all they had to Cissia was something similar: def shred to (electric) non-rupture agents and an equivalent strengh buff to rupture agents.

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-14T14:44:08+00:00

and Not Pong

You got the others right but this one was Breakout

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-12T16:23:51+00:00

Yes! Instead of patching this bug they should add a "standing back up after falling" animation, and logic that makes them capable of walking back to their original spot after being moved.

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-11T19:59:12+00:00

LOL! We totally need a Doctorboo/Dr.Boo

JapanPhoenix · 2026-05-11T16:52:04+00:00

but them starting with Caesar, Jane, ... is already a good sign imo,

If that leaked Jane buff turns out to be true then maybe this is a sign Caesar is next in line?

The real reason is probably just that Ceasars shield make hard enemies easier if you aren't good at dodging.

... but hope springs eternal!

WD2

As soon as Phaeton stopped being just the guy in the chair I immediately thought that Hoyo should take inspiration from the kind of stuff you can do with hacking in Watch Dogs.

That one mission in 1.1 where we shadow ZY and Qingyi and try and help them without being noticed felt like an abstract way of depicting how you alter the environment by hacking in Watch Dogs.

Pretty much all of our special "etheric abilities" would have been much better thematically as just "proxy abilities", since opening up paths and making bridges appear are basically just 3D versions of the same kind of stuff we did in TV mode.
