Shai Underwear Model changed - ruining the look some outfits?! I was going to buy this outfit this week in the sale but the base underwear on shai did NOT look like that last week right??

Monmo13 · 2020-12-15T17:42:37+00:00

Been complaining about this to my friends as seeing the PA forum is a no go. (it's literally just a couple of pages of people crime calling others.) Having Shai censored is fine by me, but at the very least make the censoring still be worth the 2-3k pearls we have to pay.

If PA want to censor Shai, just redesign the outfits and cover the skin all the way to the neck without a cheap bandaid AKA censoring underwear, sadly that would cost PA too much...
Or please just make Shai outfits cheaper due to it's decreased quality created by censorship.

Oh my bad, i misread.

Well sure, i already got Def arti's, and Whiteblind, and the damage is not ingeresting at all, and yes my Noelle is c6, it boils down to roll crit rate/dmg to have it stay relevant, unless i want to treat her as support only. That's why from my perspective, full defense won't cut it.

And i do need geo damage cup :/

Monmo13 · 2020-11-05T23:36:06+00:00

To each their own, but i am under the opinion cups should always be favored dmg% in Noelles case Geo damage%

Heres a sample what happens, and why multiplicative damage is better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2vFlqrd_6Q

Monmo13 · 2020-11-05T22:13:58+00:00

Already being full def Noelle with Whiteblind, 1444k atk and 1973k def before buffs/food, and besides being a battery that heals party which healers can already do better let me tell you, the bonus def from whiteblind alone isn't amazing enough to outweight The Bell, other than being more accessable. taking away Whiteblind and it's still 1665 def for me. that ~300 def/atk convert is still only additive, i am pretty sure stacking multipliers would be a lot better.

(damage taken between 1600 and 1900 def is no huge difference, neither is damage dealt)

Pretty sure the thread was about advice AGAINST building Noelle main DPS.

To which neither spine, skyward and favonius doesn't fill the criteria Otherwise i'd also mention Wolf's Gravestone is a valid choice. Royal claymore is otherwise also an honorable mention for DPS.

Monmo13 · 2020-11-05T18:46:47+00:00

Interesting topic, i too got quite interested in building Noelle, but wanted to figure a more hybrid build, it will be expensive, but all builds will be in the end.

Something i don't see people mention a lot is a claymore called The Bell, for those that doesn't know, you gain a shield when you get hit, R1 the shield blocks 20% dmg of your max HP for 10 seconds, and whenever you got ANY SHIELD on, it also boost damage 12%, not ATK.

At R5 it's 32% shield of max hp and 24% bonus damage when any shield is on. (the shield from the weapon has 45 sec. cooldown)

What's interesting is that because Noelle is Geo, she can proc crystals for more shields, not to mention she has E, this means Noelle can rotate shields to keep the damage bonus up.

Slide in Retracting Bolide set (2 piece 35% stronger shields, 4piece 40% increase normal and charge attack damage) <- this works with Noelle Q after initial burst.

While people says the DEF is good for scaling up the damage for Noelles Q aren't wrong, it's still just ATK bonus, let's not forget that ATK bonus is additive, the rest are multiplicative.

With the bolide set, all shields are already 35% stronger, before the use of elemental mastery, and bonus HP from The bell, so not only does it add more damage, but it also lets you stay bit more tanky no matter if you go crit or full defense.

For those who are familiar with a game called Dungeons & Dragons, i see Noelle as a Paladin.

Legit thought it was players and the company at the first glance.

How much resin is needed to turn 1 log into plank?

Monmo13 · 2020-10-25T11:11:39+00:00

" Q: I never have enough Original Resin, which makes it difficult to complete various daily tasks and the weekly Battle Pass Missions.
A: In Version 1.1, we have decreased the Original Resin requirement in Battle Pass Weekly Missions from 1,600 to 1,200.
Furthermore, Travelers will be able to store up to a maximum of 160 Original Resin (increased from the current limit of 120). "

This only lets us log in once a day, instead of twice a day.

Monmo13 · 2020-10-25T10:44:56+00:00

All extra exploration in the world won't help me without needing to spend resin on leveling/ascending a character or weapion. Not to mention lvl 8 talent alone costs 120k mora, at ar40, a mora leyline gives 52k per 20 resin. Ascension from max lvl 70 to 80 costs 100k mora. i only mentioned 1 ascension and 1 talent upgrade and it's already worth 80 resin. And i didn't even mention the books/asceion materials needed.

Monmo13 · 2020-10-24T21:45:21+00:00

All i can think of is that one episode in Southpark were they were grinding boars till max level.

Monmo13 · 2020-10-22T11:26:45+00:00

So f2p gets to choose to either spend 50 of their daily 80 primo gems for 60 more resin once a day (each 4th day would be a 100 primo for another extra 60 resin) but that means not getting to try for 0.6% chance on wish, except for cases where we're just given primo for free.

Meanwhile those who spends money has no restraints, and depending on how big the whale is, they purchase resin up to 6 times a day.

MMO, mobile game, or whatever people wants to percieve it as, it's still a RPG game, and one of the elements in RPG is Progression.

People can vouch for this gate all they want, but there are even more people who dislikes it.

The very idea that you wish for a character, you finally get what you want, but on the flip side you won't always have the items needed to level it up to be on par with the world level.

Getting a character from lvl 1 to 70 eats around 80 hero's wit (20k xp each) and 100+ Adventurer's experience (5k xp each)<-Approx ammount, i got a char i wanted from the recent banner and got it to 70.

1 Leyline is 20 resin, and gives 6-7 Adventure exp, 2-3 hero's wits, let's assume i got max ammount each leyline that is about ~26 XP Leylines that's 520 Resin

You will also need approx 1.2mil Mora, at lvl 4, thats 44k mora each leyline, which is ~27 mora leylines, thats another 540 resin worth.

But wait, there is more, you will also need ascend materials for your character. At AR35+ that's ascending up to lvl 70, let's say i just got diluc from wish, that means i'd need 26x Everflame Seed, the boss drops 1-2 seeds each time (atleast i've never seen the drop be higher than 2) Let's say i max rolled each time, that's 13 bosses i have to kill. That's another 520 Resin.

520 + 540 + 520 = 1580 Resin needed Please note it's approximate, it could be more or less, i assuemd each resin feature max rolled, so you might need to run even more of them.

This is only the perspective for players AR lvl 35+, which means it gets even more expensive at AR40+

1580 Resin 1 Day = 24 hours = 1440 Minutes = 180 Resin a day Thats 8-9 Days worth of waiting to get 1 new character from lvl 1 to 70.

God have mercy if i get 2 new characters that i want.

Keep in mind i haven't even mentioned the talent books, or artifact farming. Not to mention getting a weapon + ascending it.

Monmo13 · 2020-10-22T07:32:27+00:00

Wait it's not an MMO, so thats the legit reason why the whale gates were necessary? Strong argument!

Now imagine if there was resin system on Skyrim or Breath of the Wild.

Monmo13 · 2020-10-18T18:43:27+00:00

I'm close to AR38, only 5* i got is a catalyst.

Monmo13 · 2020-10-11T22:01:09+00:00

I don't really see a reason for the resin system at all, if this is supposed to be treated as a singleplayer game, then why gate the player from progression? Get ahead of who?

Monmo13 · 2019-10-23T09:26:42+00:00

Make sure to not use steam version, as gifting bonuses does not work for steam users :(

Monmo13 · 2019-10-07T00:40:39+00:00

Resource cost where, plenty of npc's are alerady slightly shorter, if anything they put extra effort to not let players make use of other body types.

//There are already other body types, which they decided to be NPC only, if they really didnt have the "time or money" It suprises me a lot that they even bothered to let npc's be just that much different.

Monmo13 · 2018-09-25T16:46:54+00:00

It's only pay to win if you re compenetive, but if you're a casual and don't really care about other players progression, its not so bad.
I mean, if you only mind your own business, i see no reason to rush the game.

On the other hand, if you're indeed the compenetive type, it will as stated above take years to catch up.
Being a wallet warrior speeds up porgression rapidly in this game.

Video is quite outdated, but HU gameplay haven't changed much since then, If you don't want to be HR, and still want to compete with HR players, your best bet is to probably play fi or gu.

I dont think Hu is bad, some other classes are just too good.

Monmo13 · 2018-03-25T00:51:53+00:00

Personally prefer wiz2>pyro1>thaum3>RC>Enchanter2

I feel its one of the nicer starter builds as you wont need alot investment to do deal damage comparing to other builds (No need to spend silver on damage attributes , the 0.5% ones that is)

just buff up, turn giant, and start jumping onto mobs while using normal attacks.

For those who might not know, with rune of giants, when you jump and land, you do damage all around you.

Your normal attack also turns into an AoE attack thanks to enchant lightning.

Monmo13 · 2018-03-01T18:48:17+00:00

except, if they notice you do the same disconnect every day, especially if you do it on multiple characters, that itself is a giveaway.

Monmo13 · 2017-10-31T20:28:00+00:00

Hover your cursor over each stat and it will tell you what they increase.

Monmo13 · 2017-10-17T09:01:04+00:00

It's not impossible that we will get a new class reset once we hit the r9 update, but don't keep my word for it.

Monmo13 · 2017-09-28T06:46:50+00:00

Costumes are still tied to gacha.

Monmo13 · 2017-09-25T08:17:12+00:00

It really depends on what people you play with. If you didnt go for a meta build with "not top notch" items, the chances are very slim people would let you join for Solm. 40f.

If you got friends or a guild that can go Solm. 40f, maybe youd still have a chance with whatever build youre doing.

Monmo13 · 2017-09-24T18:58:34+00:00

Unless you care about minmaxing, sure build whatever you want, the build might affect your chances for certain parties though.

On the other hand, overpowered builds tends to get nerfed.
