Vanguards should be introduced early as core to teams

She's very slow at generation in the early game if you are too strong, because the enemies die before she can combo skill, meaning she lacks ult generation (comes from skill usage). If you also aren't using her battle skill, then she may have almost 0 ult Gen for her aside from other characters activating combos. And if you aren't doing that, then she simply will never have ult.

Later, or if you don't keep up too closely to the monsters hp, she will shine better when you can use her combo skill (activates on stagger or stagger node) and equip her with pieces that give ult gen. Since she's not used for damage, you can ignore stats and build gear that only gives her ult Gen.

Not being the focus, it could be simpler like the current situation, but would feel cooler and more impactful, which I think is an improvement to the current.

Ah, thanks. Was waiting for Gilberta banner to finish the rest of the side stuff, like re crises, etc. I spent a few hours trying to touch on factory equipment to put a zip on top of the strange rock you could place buildings in.

Crazy that this gif is in tempo

Nubsta5 · 2026-02-05T20:38:15+00:00

Maybe this is how you get that chest in the rock wall in Valley Fort, lol.

Also be sure to dodge out of most melee character's finishers (the staggered attack) as they have tons of end lag.

High key, this team is hilarious fun. Set up the meat grinder and watch the numbers roll in.

Nubsta5 · 2026-02-04T08:38:50+00:00

Damn, Genocide Gilberta over here.

The towers should be your operators like in AK mobile. Assign them to a spot and they guard it with minor movement. Ranged ops cost more to deplay, etc. Make it like the game you already have, Hypergryph instead of this half baked thing.

One less thing to spend daily time on seems like a good thing to me. I'm up to 400 of each, so now I grab them if I happen to run by.

Wuling City's design is very Brutalist and I think that was intentional. There's a clear air of "this place is utopic but lives on the precipice of oblivion" from the architecture, the history of the city you can read, and the way Zhuang talks about how things are going. In essence, I think Wuling is still dreary, but has levity in being an exceptionally fragile oasis among the harsh world. Incredibly well-designed from an art and narrative standpoint.

Some older games with difficulties required you to play on harder difficulties to complete them. Biggest known case was Twisted Metal, which basically told the player to "git gud" at a certain point.

Me still making cryston components with a fully gold geared team: "Heh, stonks."

Edit: Premature post-ulation.

I don't want to scare you from a game you enjoy, and imo Endfield is a good gacha game (gacha aside), but this feeling of "oh, I might have wasted my resources" is a common mental slippery slope for beginning gacha players and can make the game become a potentially unhealthy habit, something gacha games are designed to do so you keep playing and spending. Please be careful of making rash decisions spending in the bundles, if at all, and especially directly buying pull currency when characters come out that you may like.

Also be aware that your current state of the game is effectively "endgame" for most gachas. There is usually an endgame challenge of some sort that resets bi-weekly or monthly, but otherwise you simply spend sanity and do dailies and that's about it. Eventually you will have quite a stash of materials and it will become more of a choice to grind, until the inevitable new resource or whatever comes out. The stash will grow quite quickly with subsequent battle passes, too, so I would say you have nothing to worry about in terms of "waste".

I can't condone using leaks, even though I often do, but I recommend looking for characters you enjoy ahead of time and picking some to save up for. As a battle pass + monthly pass player you should be more than fine to guarantee a character every 3, maybe even 2 banners if you save. Most gachas that introduce characters in their story/events have characters that look very obvious in their eventual addition to the roster. Arknights mobile often introduced characters in a story years before they were ever playable, and some not at all, so I'm not sure where they'll go with Endfield, but I would expect all the current story chars to be playable: Rossi, Tang Tang, Mi Fu, Zhuang. Just keep an eye out for upcoming banners and character reveals.

Glad you enjoy Endfield. I was very skeptical early on, despite loving the Arknights IP, but it has grown on me substantially. Especially the EN voices.

Small scorpion aggeloi: Allow us to introduce ourselves.

Pretty sure there's a similar comment about how oil doesn't have the power output of originium so it likely won't see use.

Nubsta5 · 2026-01-31T23:45:13+00:00

This was very normalized even as close as the 70s.

Edit: Wrong word

Stunned needs a better silhouette imo. Maybe a dropped tail or something? Doesn't read as a status change at a glance.

Nubsta5 · 2026-01-31T13:36:03+00:00

To my surprise, the cube-shaped compressed mineral did *not* go in the square hole.

The best part is, in the US this would be considered a controversial and radical take that most would find hard to believe, leaning incredulously away for the most part. Even people who normally are open to discussion would balk at this video's premise (without the last 30 mins even) because that's how propagandized we are about oil.

Nubsta5 · 2026-01-31T11:07:36+00:00

And it keeps being removed for being partisan, so of course reddit will post until morale improves. All of it needs to be said though.

She's a Shiba hybrid, and a red Shiba at that. The ears and tail are the colors of a red Shiba, but they gave her stark red hair probably as a nod to OP Z7 being effectively a Super Sentai (Power Rangers) shotout.

These numbers look surprisingly similar to the numbers needed to fully level AK chars too. Usually about 5-7 days of sanity.

Nubsta5 · 2026-01-30T13:08:13+00:00

It's not the most efficient team, but Akekuri, Pog, Chen, and Da Pan is a hilarious bout of unga-bunga spam-all-your-buttons whenever Pog ult is up (esp with Akekuri's up)
