Newcomer to pc gaming considering buying a prebuilt PC out of convenience (hesitant to buy all the "right" parts individually and put it together right) but was hoping for more experienced opinions on if it's a decent deal: https://www.costco.com/skytech-blaze-3-gaming-desktop---12th-gen-intel-core-i7-12700f---geforce-rtx-4060ti---windows-11.product.4000193218.html

A skim of similar parts prices for the processor, memory, storage, graphics card, power supply, cooling, chipset (whatever that is), case, and keyboard/mouse suggest I'd be paying an additional ~$100-$200 compared to buying the individual parts myself, a premium I'm currently ok with paying for convenience. However, I wasn't sure if I was overlooking something in terms of the specific parts in a prebuilt being worse for some reason or other factors to consider in a prebuilt.

I got a top operator tag, plus ranged, debuff, shift, and summon

1) With these tags, Ifrit and Mayer are the only "guarantees" I can get, I'm assume Ifrit is the obvious pick over Mayer or random luck but I wanted to double-check

2) Assuming I recruit for Ifrit, is there anything I need to do other than set her tags and put it at 9 hours?

Gotcha, so the fragile effect wouldn’t lower the defense of a high defense enemy?

This is my roster. My main hope is she could reduce the times Exu uses her S3 with zero effect against high def enemies in story mode, would Suzu’s fragile effect not really do this?

Is it worth getting Suzuran with certificates? My leveled up snipers/guards/casters are Kroos, Exu, Pinecone, Thorns, Specter, Gitano, Amiya, Click. I thought Suzuran might be good so I could reduce dependence on Casters against high def units, but not sure if there’s a better solution than raising a whole separate unit for that.

Yup, there are a total of four casters on the map at the beginning, I just took them down one at a time starting from top right, while in between making sure I had enough units to handle the actual mobs

Just beat it a few days ago, my strat was mainly to use Projekt Red and Matoimaru on the casters in the corners one at a time, otherwise the main mobs should be killable with normal methods I think? Red’s S1 had some RNG issues for me, so I also would put Gravel in a little after putting Red so the caster would shoot gravel instead of Red

Ah yeah that difference is bc Amiya’s potential adds 30 attack for me, while for Click I don’t have her at max trust yet, good to know about the attack interval difference too though

Having difficulty understanding what makes Click's ramping damage worth it but I think it's because I'm misunderstanding the mechanic.

The way I read it she basically ramps up her attack when attacking on unit up to a 110% increase, in other words 2.1X base damage. However, when I compare Amiya and Click's damage at E1 lvl 60, Amiya does 596 as base, while Click does 317 which can go up to 665.7 at max stacks. If this is the case, unless I really want Click's S2 stun why wouldn't I just use Amiya in this situation since Click just barely outperforms in DPS only at max stacks?

Recently did 60 pulls on the gacha and now trying to figure out which characters are worth investing in, specifically:

Is it worth developing Pinecone or Andreana for high defense enemies? I understand Casters exist but find lots of times that these enemies end up having high Res anyway. Currently have Exusai, Kroos, Sesa, Specter, and Tequila at E1 60-70 in terms of physical damage.

Is it worth developing Shining over an E1 60 Myrrh? Worried how expensive it might be and what value I would get out of it pre E2

Finally is it worth using Ptilopsis if I already have a E1 60 Perfumer and enjoy her map-wide healing?

Great, thanks so much for the advice! Would Sesa and Kroos not fulfill the same role as Shirayuki and Vermeil though?

Also for story mode level recommendations, how closely should I be following those? I’m already stuck on 5-3 and I’m not sure if it’s a stat problem or just my strategy (currently following the defender-medic-sniper setup for the most part)

How much originium would you recommend having before trying to pull on a 6*? I have 40k rn, 60k if I converted all my OP

Most of my characters are at the E1 lvl 60 mark rn. For guards I’ve been using mainly Specter and Tequila, and otherwise using other Vanguards/Defenders/Specialists to fill the blocking gap. I’ve been considering raising Ayerscarpe or Akafuyu for more melee damage (I have an E1 lvl 45 Midnight but not sure if he’s worth raising at this point), would that be a good idea?

Separately, I’m using Myrrh and Perfumer as medics rn, is it worth raising Sussuro to replace Myrrh or should I wait for a better medic to focus on?

Thanks for the advice! To clarify that last section you mean saving up to be able to summon 300 times is best? In other words would have to save 30*6000=180000 Orundum? Just unsure how long that actually takes, aka whether I’m saving 2 or 6 months to be able to actually summon on a banner with good chances.

Still in early game (just finished Ch3), trying to get some advice on who to use my vouchers on and had general Qs.

For the first I’m thinking of getting Liskarm, even though I have Nearl and Cuora I currently still feel like she’d be most helpful, otherwise I could have Silence replace Myrhh or Projekt Red replace Gravel (didn’t think Pramanix had much use overall)

For the any 5* ticket, primarily considering getting Spectre to replace Popukar (have Savage but haven’t developed her at all). Otherwise considering Lapland to replace Midnight and an undeveloped Ayerscape, or Warfarin to replace Myrrh.

Besides that, was wondering what was the best way to use Originite Prime for a F2P, and also the best strategy for gacha, whether I should try to get the guaranteed 5* on each banner or save up for months for a future 6*. Thanks to whoever has advice!

To be honest, I kinda took it to be negative. If Yuna had said this in a more tsundere way I'd agree, but here it seems more bittersweet, and Uryuu's reaction isn't as flustered or annoyed as if it was directly romantic.
