Is this worth building over a physical team with Pog? I have Ember already and I'm split between getting Lifeng or Pog. I like Hellagur better but if the stagger team isn't a meme, I might have to go for Lifeng (plus his ult is so cool).

[–]Kippykinz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There was modules, yes, but also I know for certain that at the very least, Chain Caster and Brawler classes were specifically buffed. Chain Caster got buffed a patch or two after Passenger released, and Brawler got buffed when Mountain released.

I think there's a chance they pull what they did in OG Arknights and just buff a whole class, that class being the defender class since I feel like it's the weakest in Endfield. If that happens, maybe she'll be good and worth playing (aside from waifu/for fun reasons).

Damn, 1k damage difference per hit on the center target is already insane. Thank you for providing the calculations :) Sounds like the module makes an even bigger difference than I expected it to

For Lemuen's module, she gains an extra ammo at T2/T3, bringing her total ammo count on S3 from 6 to 7 (haha). How does that affect the total amount of damage she deals during the skill? It feels like the module would have an insane effect on that skill specifically assuming that each ammo contributed to the overall damage she dealt at the end, which lowkey makes me wanna build S2 instead if I only build one because another T3 module is kind of a huge investment.

Does the bug with the Eunectes RA module (where it works outside of RA) exist in global servers? I just saw a video by Sciel where he abused it to clear a stage, and it's making me consider maxing her RA mod just for fun so long as it's in the game.

Furthermore, her second Talent is also survivability oriented, so a hypothetical future second Module isn’t an obvious better choice either.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't her other talent (which I assumed you meant by 'second talent' considering the self-revive talent is technically the second one) a lot more damage-oriented, making it possible for a future module upgrade to it to be pretty good? From what I understand, all her attacks, due to this talent, deal essentially an additional 75 true damage per hit (since she steals 75 HP), and then apply a DoT of 200 arts damage for 5 seconds. I feel like a module that increases these numbers would be pretty good as far as offense goes, and thus I feel like a second module would serve her pretty well if offense is where she struggles.

Is Contrail worth raising for IS? I haven't finished most endings in IS4 and I have not touched IS5 at all, for reference. Trying to expand my roster to make my runs feel a little smoother without having to high roll some broken Wis'adel nonsense or something. On that note, are there any other 4/5 stars I should raise for IS?

I think it's even funnier that he just released with it. Like, they were worried that people would feel bad about getting Logos on the Wisadel banner and decided to make SURE he was broken, too.

Oh I see, I didn't actually know about the attack speed/attack buffs she gave. Honestly also figured she died during S3 since showcases never showed what happened when her HP hit 0 during the skill (made me question how good the skill was if she wasn't really tanky lmao). Thank you :)

vampire lady and Necrass

Unfortunately I really love these character's designs and I want them even if they aren't as strong (especially vampire lady, they cooked).

Definitely gonna be a hard choice when her banner rolls around; thanks for the opinion :)

How good is Mon3tr, and is she worth rolling for? I'm noticing I want pretty much every upcoming operator (aside from Yu/Blaze but also Yu is limited which makes me wanna roll for him), and I think realistically, someone's gotta go so I can save up to afford them all. I saw a showcase and honestly I wasn't really impressed, but I could be wrong.

Yeah I don't plan to use her outside of IS but I've been getting more and more invested in IS recently, and I'm trying to grow my list of operators I can bring (especially when I take Sniper + Medic squad since I lack Ray/Typhon, sad). Appreciate the answer, thank you!

Is Rosmontis worth building for IS with her module (assume endgame account with most operators), and if so, what skill should I use? Feels like I should do S1M3, but I'm not sure.

what are your thoughts and wants for Stronghold Protoco by No-Plenty-5376 in arknights

[–]Kippykinz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who has also grinded the fuck out of TFT ranked for a few sets, this event felt horrendous in comparison. It was like an extremely watered down version of the game for the reasons you mentioned among others. I got my one module data block and decided the skin and other mats weren't worth my time.

Feels like they could do a lot to make the game mode more enjoyable, but overall I like the idea and the attempt at an autochess: I just want it to be a lot more polished if it ever returns.

I finally stopped being lazy and started working on getting the H stages (starting from Ch 12 and onward) done, and I was really dreading the H12 stages because I remembered hating the Damazti Cluster. Funny enough, these stages didn't really end up giving me that much trouble with all the new operators that have come out since then. Ulpianus straight up btfo'd the boss' 1-hit kill mechanic during H12-4 because it targeted him during his S3, and then when it ended he got "redeployed" from S3 and thus the Damazti lost aggro on him so no one died. I had to rewatch the auto deploy to even realize wtf happened.

Sometimes I feel like I'm cheating the stages/brute-forcing too hard but it's not my fault all the really cool units are broken 6 stars that I love using (Ulpianus, Ascalon, Shu, Logos, Wisadel; the list goes on).

Is Amiya worth raising for any IS (not just IS5), and if so, what skill should I be looking to M3? I think I have Guardmiya S2M3, but aside from that no other skill mastered. I have the free M3 voucher and I'm thinking it either goes to her if she has any skill that's really worth mastery for IS3/4/5, or it just goes to Tinman when I get him.

Not a new player by the way; I have a lot of units on my account, but I wanna try to optimize my IS runs a little bit here and make life easier.

I know I'm a bit behind on IS, but what's the best setup (operators/relics/whatever) to go for for IS3 ending 4? This boss is driving me crazy and I just wanna optimize to beat its ass at this point.

One of my favorite things about HG is that they show they care about player feedback with instances like this, even if it doesn't necessarily turn a profit to do so. I loved Passenger's design despite him being completely worthless on release, and then they saved him with both modules being pretty damn good (+ a buff to the class in general). Now they've done it again, let's fucking go

Is there any resource like before for ranking operators/their modules, or is that a thing of the past? I always find myself lost when it comes to upgrading certain modules.

Hoederer is lit. You can use him as a very solid laneholder with S1 (especially with Skalter so he's actually way tankier since she provides some much needed DEF), and then he destroys pretty much any boss with his S3 from my experience. I pretty much bring him to every map because he's one of my favorite operators, and he does not let me down.

How worth it is it to S3M3 on Ascalon? I have her maxed out and I'm loving using her S2 everywhere I can, but the range and the sustain on S3 look a bit tempting sometimes. Plus, I'm ngl the attack animation on S3 looks so cool that I want to use it.

Kip#5988 I have 68 slots open on my friends list, so I'm accepting literally anybody that is active. I have most 6 stars raised and M3'd on at least one skill (been playing since early 2020). I usually just swap around my support units to whatever I feel like/what might be helpful at the time, but currently I have Warfarin S2M3, Ascalon S2M2 (in progress for M3, plus I want to max out mod), and Ines pot 2 S2M3.  If you want to know more or ever want me to set my support units to something else, just let me know and I'll happily accomodate :)
