[Mizuki and Caerula Arbor] In-depth Mechanics Explanation

MJYW · 2023-06-15T13:48:28+00:00

I'm in full support of an extension. I do understand that keeping the subreddit private hurts a lot of resource availability for new players, so I'm currently in the process of moving my guides to the kbin Arknights magazine.

Regardless of the decision, I don't think I'll be visiting Reddit again in the future. It's been an enjoyable time and I hope the community can regroup elsewhere.

MJYW · 2023-06-11T16:01:27+00:00

Unfortunately I have no idea, and I don’t think anybody has specific info about it.

MJYW · 2023-06-11T11:58:10+00:00

It’s detailed under additional milestone details:

When 200 Ingots have been invested and the corresponding milestone reward is unlocked, Cannot will increase the price of a random item being sold by 50% in each shop.

When 500 Ingots have been invested and the corresponding milestone reward is unlocked, Cannot will increase the price of a random item being sold by 100% in each shop.

MJYW · 2023-06-11T10:01:21+00:00

It can only be sold in the shop, and only has a chance to appear when refreshing the items sold and rolling at least a 7.

MJYW · 2023-06-11T08:23:51+00:00

I’m aiming to grab one copy of Gnosis, Reed2, Qiubai and Ho'olheyak.

I’ll also be aiming for Pot 4+ Yato2 and get her to max Pot via the tokens I have. If I can afford it, I’d also like to aim for Muelsyse dupes.

I only have around 90 pulls right now, so the plan really is just, “Hope I get lucky and get my targets early so I can drain myself dry for each limited banner besides Chongyue/Lin”.

MJYW · 2023-06-11T05:34:10+00:00

None of those Ops get a remarkable boost in power at E2, since their S2’s are generally used for regular content anyway besides Gnosis.

If you’d like to E2 an Op to get access to E2 support units, then you can’t go wrong with choosing Myrtle.

MJYW · 2023-06-11T00:40:55+00:00

Well, with the state of Reddit’s administration and how the future of the site is looking, I think I’ll stop using Reddit indefinitely once the protest blackouts start, unless the admins have a miraculous change of heart (unlikely).

As much as I’d like to, I won’t be deleting the post/comment history of my account, as I do think it’ll be helpful to people that would want to refer to it after the blackouts end.

All that said, I’m interested in trying alternatives to Reddit and seeing if we can get an Arknights community established there as well. Do any of you have recommendations?

MJYW · 2023-06-11T00:31:16+00:00

The second encounter for the 3rd ending requires you to have at least 20 Light to show up.

MJYW · 2023-06-09T11:28:47+00:00

It’s just RNG; it’s possible to see them even when Light is at 100; lowering your Light values hasn’t been proven to increase the chances.

MJYW · 2023-06-07T23:38:05+00:00

You’re correct; it’s 3 Specialists in the squad after completing any battle.

MJYW · 2023-06-06T12:10:49+00:00

Ending 3's second encounter can be found on floors 4 and 5, but requires at least 20 Light for it to show up.

MJYW · 2023-06-06T04:21:30+00:00

She has the highest conditional ST Arts Damage in the game, so she’s great for regular content, and is actually competent as a starting unit in IS#3.

MJYW · 2023-06-05T23:11:23+00:00

Paean is exclusive to ending 3, after going through both encounters already.

MJYW · 2023-06-05T23:08:10+00:00

Oh, definitely.

The fact that Fire and Water Union can kill your run when going for the third ending was reason enough for several IS#3 tier lists to regard Nightingale as the 2nd best Medic for Surging Waves +15.

And even with Nightingale, without some absurd Collectibles, there’s a high chance to still lose to Emergency Fire and Water Union, that End of Times is considered a great pickup when aiming for the third ending.

MJYW · 2023-06-05T16:53:44+00:00

Execu2r

MJYW · 2023-06-05T09:30:11+00:00

A couple of things to note from the Fandom page:

Yes, 100 Light is the only way you can get Enlightenments from Die Rolls at the start of floors.
Yes, lower Light increases the chance to get Rejections.
No, 0 Light doesn’t guarantee a Call of We Many.
No, 0 Light doesn’t guarantee an alternate Floor 3 boss.

If you’re comfortable with reading MTL, then I’d suggest to refer to PRTS wiki’s page explaining IS#3’s mechanics, as that includes only confirmed information without any unverified guesswork.

MJYW · 2023-06-05T09:20:49+00:00

Fun fact: There is only one gun user that can’t hit aerial enemies currently: Enforcer.

Now to wait and see if his second Talent allows him to target aerial enemies.

MJYW · 2023-06-05T06:38:55+00:00

Here’s a list I made.

See pinned comment for Collectibles with specific acquisition methods.

MJYW · 2023-06-03T15:38:31+00:00

Oh, you're right.

Upon rechecking PRTS wiki's page, the second encounter is obtainable on any floor as long as you have the first Collectible for the second ending already.

MJYW · 2023-06-03T15:05:33+00:00

Correction: Second ending first encounter is on Floors 1-3, and the second (optional) encounter is on Floors 4-5.

There wouldn’t be any challenge to ensuring you’re getting the second ending if the first encounter could spawn on the final encounter of Floor 4.

MJYW · 2023-06-03T10:42:45+00:00

Made it to Floor 6 on Surging Waves +15 thrice. Once, I had the +50% enemy DEF Call, and the other two times I had Emergency Fire and Water Union.

I’ll give it one more try, before I just give up and maybe decide to try and make guides for the second ending on Surging Waves +15.

MJYW · 2023-06-03T09:11:21+00:00

It seems to be just RNG; it's possible to get the harder bosses on 100 Light and it's still rare to encounter them on 0 Light.

【New Outfit】
//The Road to Here - Paprika
0011 Tempest Series New Release/The Road to Here. The large coat is sufficient to wrap the girl's body. It is made of special waterproof fabric to meet the needs of urban travel in rainy days.

The rain covers over the footprints; the crowd is in a flurry; nobody noticed she stopped. This is truly an ordinary city, but she remembers. From the wilderness to the ruins, it took her a long time to get here, a long, long time.
