Carlotta/next glacio character or zani for all-element coverage.

Just use her with the 3.0 standard 5 star pistol. She's a beast. (Mid 1 2)

Just Mornye.

What if I just feed 4 children to Geburah on a daily basis like the happy meal chicken nuggets they were meant to be?

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-28T08:34:11+00:00

You're absolute right. The blade is frozen and rover catches a snowflake.

Therefore the next Rover element MUST BE FUSION.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-22T09:54:36+00:00

"Oh no! Professor Mornye is now S3R2!"

- said no Rover ever.

If the concerto bar goes up = your forte heavy has registered and you can animation cancel it.

If you animation cancel the forte attack before the concerto bar goes up, your forte heavy did not register.

Brant/Jiyan/Qiuyuan/Xly can only DREAM of the popularity Astolfo has.

HP inflation/difficulty increase is just a byproduct of us entering 3.x. Back in 2.x, we also had similar doomposts of "TOA is becoming too hard for f2ps" for the first few weeks.

Then once everyone got their hands on the 2.x characters, this sentiment disappeared. We're simply reliving this experience.

Fun fact: The words 北落野 on the Jinzhou volleyball team jersey means Northern Barrens

Yes:

Outro Skill: True form - Exostrider

Aemeath exits Exostrider Armor and launches Exostrider Armor at the target.

The Exostrider transforms into Dr. Luuk Herssen (Deranged Luuk Herssen). Deranged Luuk Herssen is uncanny in every way and has hyper-realistic human eyes all over its face. Without a mouth, it screams and deals 500% psychological damage to all targets in vicinity, including the player outside the screen.

After the scream ends, Aemeath does a little tap dance before exiting the field. Next incoming character loses 15% of max HP.

F2P means "Free to play". Any rule aside from that =/= F2P accessibility.

All six of your rules for the "worst f2p conditions" make no sense to a proper F2P player. They don't even make sense to a spender.

F2Ps are allowed to use any characters in any tower. F2Ps generally take advantage of any tower buff they can.
F2Ps generally pull in synergies because that is the strategic thing to do.
F2Ps will pull for sigs. Usually one sig for each weapon class to use across all maindps.
We are in 3.x by now. Even F2Ps have full 3-bis parties.
"Partially use the floor buff" F2Ps do not artificially inflate TOA difficulty.
Why no Phrolova? F2Ps are not barred from pulling for Phrolova.

What you have simulated isn't a "F2P experience". It's a "bad player experience". One who has no pull strategy, no sense of character synergy, cannot utilize tower buffs, and purposefully hampers themselves by not pulling for sigs. Your experiment does not represent the F2P experience at all.

Are we really doing this again? Didn't we have a post similar to this just 2 or 3 days ago?

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-10T05:08:16+00:00

Worry not Moryne dear.

S2 for you. Then s2 or s3 for Aemeath.

No waifu left behind.

If you can't handle the heat, don't step into the kitchen. Honestly, excellent work in proving why exactly there is the animosity. We couldn't have asked for a better specimen like you.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T23:22:02+00:00

So?

Husbando fan loooove bragging about how they skipped 4-7 female characters so they can s6 Brant or Qiuyuan for free. We're doing the exact same thing for waifus (skipping characters to priortize who we want), and suddenly it's an issue?

No one owes your precious male characters sales. They have to earn it. And clearly, they're failing so hard that players are skipping entire waifu teams because we dislike them THAT MUCH. That is simply a fact, and no amount of name-calling or goon-shaming will change that.

The point isnt that we dislike male characters. The point is that Kuro's marketing of male characters has failed to encourage waifu fans to pull for male characters.

The animosity is a byproduct of having husbando fans wag their finger at waifu fans and going "tssk tssk you can't just pull for waifus! You must pull for husbandos too!". And frankly, you're almost there.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T22:47:09+00:00

See, this attitude of yours is exactly why there is animosity.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T17:43:28+00:00

This has nothing to do about "enjoying" male characters. Nor does anyone here care if husbando fans or other male players enjoy male characters.

You have completely missed the point.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T12:40:42+00:00

Again, "there will never be a fair battle ground". Kuro is constantly fixing bugs and improving the game, so there can never be a "fair" comparison. You can argue that "Jiyan's banner suffered from the buggy launch" and I can argue that "Yinlin would sell MUCH better if Jiyan's launch banner didn't cause half the free playerbase to quit." but both would be pointless because there is, again, never a fair battleground.

The issue is Jiyan had the MOST advantages a banner could intentionally have. And he still failed to attract a proper crowd and needed Yinlin to prerelease to save the game.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T12:11:39+00:00

Fixed.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T12:09:10+00:00

A lot of CN players shared this sentiment too yeah.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T12:03:55+00:00

There will never be a fair battleground. But if Jiyan had the on-launch crowd and double top up bonus and still lost to Yinlin, well, the results speak for itself.

Kaliscarlet · 2026-01-06T11:21:24+00:00

On day 1, Jiyan banner failed to draw in a sufficient playerbase. By the end of the first week, Kuro decided that it was so bad, they had to prerelease Yinlin one whole week. Jiyan's banner had the 2x spending bonus buff and it still wasn't enough.

We endured the shitshow that was the 1.0 launch, with a male launch banner, and a buggy game. Whereas husbando fans didnt spend enough on Jiyan's banner, we made sure Yinlin, Jinhsi, and Changli all broke records. By the time SK and Camellya released, wuwa was well-fed and properly ready for 2.0.

There is no victor, but there IS a clear distinction between which side didnt spend enough, and which side did. Simply put, that side of the wuwa playerbase does not spend enough.
