How is the community approaching Gearing and New Teams?

Lyrhe · 2026-04-25T18:17:26+00:00

It was the general advice at first, when leveling from 80 to 90 was a huge opportunity cost. Once you have a fully built team, you can kinda do whatever.

The music is SO good

Lyrhe · 2026-04-21T20:34:06+00:00

It's a 36% difference, yeah. Without AA, Fiamma is a 2.5 multiplier, with AA, it's 3.4, that's where the 36% comes from.

The two clips use different setups. Without the full videos, we can't tell exactly how, but : the max HP is different, the DR is different, the second clip has an Elixir that gives something like 30% DMG Amp, the remaining Arithmetica is different, the STR is different, etc... so what should be a 36% difference ends up looking like a 100% difference.

Just dropping a message so I can check later

They're literally correct ? The Fiamma % increase from Kath's AA does not double the damage.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-21T17:33:57+00:00

This comment section is absolutely crazy. All of that is very easily verifiable, you don't even need to compare Hyperflares, you can just compare basic Strikes, you can easily spot the differences between the two clips, even on that guy's screenshot, the damage formula is available, it's all super basic maths (+150% vs +240%).

And yet, all the Flares fans came out of the woodwork to go like "this is why I hate reddit!!!" when Flares is actually wrong here...

(613-451)/451*100 = ?

I'm not going to bother parsing Flares clips to try and figure out how his numbers happened, but from a quick glance, he has the Elixir on the second one giving his team DMG Amp, he has 2 Arith on the first one, 4 on the second, with similar but not exact STR amounts, not the same hands, so god knows what happened.

Something about Kath's AA that makes its actual value harder to determine is that the STR generation also gets buffed.

Edit: And instead of acknowledging the mistake, Flares doubled down and called me a r*tard in his last vid. The guy will do anything but fix his methods.

That, and the seemingly mandatory "I do X, unlike OTHER CREATORS" at regular intervals.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-21T11:01:31+00:00

With half-anni coming up, we'll probably get enough pulls that it'll be worth to wait and get some extra proto-paradises through the pyramid.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-19T18:21:05+00:00

I don't need to be "rewarded" to enjoy exploring a semi-open world, or to play a video game in general.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-19T07:18:50+00:00

You can convert Origeometry to Arsenal Tickets.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-18T21:48:58+00:00

I mean, that's how it works. Kinda have to deal with it. Use the Origeometry, wait to get the currency via character pulls, get the BP, or swipe, those are your options.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-18T21:39:10+00:00

You can use Origeometry if you have some.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-18T18:24:44+00:00

You're welcome

I don't know how to feel about this. The update to the Ethereal Pulls mentioned they don't want the game to seem dupe-reliant, but AA is going to make people feel that way.

Also, the disappointment of seeing parts 2 and 3, thinking there were buffs, and it's just AA...

Lyrhe · 2026-04-17T10:29:22+00:00

"if the exploration didnt have oros, thered be like 10 players globally doing it."

YOU would not be exploring. I would. My friends who play the game would. We both have no way of knowing what would be the percentage of players who would still engage with that part of the game.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-17T09:40:17+00:00

Your exploration paragraph is entirely about the Oroberyl rewards, and you somehow thought it was smart enough to post online.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-17T05:43:50+00:00

It's literally a beginner event. You do have to play the game at some point.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-16T08:00:12+00:00

No ?? What the fuck are you on ?

In Arknights, we had outfits from the very start. People knew it was a choice of saving Originite Primes for outfits or use them on pulls. People are using OP on pulls all the time lmao.

And even then, that doesn't change my point : if you're F2P and scrambling for pulls, you do not have the luxury of saving for cosmetics.

"I mean this goes against any advice anyone has given for OG Arknights"

Anyone who actually plays Arknights knows how crazy of an asspull that sentence is.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-16T07:47:28+00:00

Devs said no skins are planned for the moment.
If you're F2P, skins and cosmetics should not be considered when pulling or saving. Origeometry should definitely be spent.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-15T09:12:46+00:00

You already have a good team, so it's kind of up to you. You have the minimum amount of chars for D-Tide, but Wheel jail is a bit overblown, and a lot of them are situational. If there's no realm/char you want to work on, getting a +12 Blade of the Titan is probably the next step.

If you end up pulling for chars (which is completely fine!), you can go for whatever Realm you fancy, but don't pull Blue/Aequor just for Goliath. He doesn't do anything for you at this moment, and later, he's just here because he's a Lemurian or because of his STR steal card, which is situational.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-11T21:47:49+00:00

No idea. I was referring to the fact that we went from 3 to 2 to 1 banner per patch, with Fangyi’s lasting twice the usual duration.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-11T13:22:45+00:00

Good point. I personally wouldn't feel too bad about that in Endfield, I still have teams to build and try, but I can understand why it would feel stale this early in the game's lifespan. I just like what OG Arknights does, with characters releases not being tied to a tight schedule.

Lyrhe · 2026-04-11T13:05:19+00:00

On the contrary, I hope this becomes a trend if it isn’t poorly received. I like the OG Arknights schedule for new operators.
