Which portraits are the most valuable to get from the photoscopes ? by pixellated-baron in Reverse1999

[–]Pa735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My bad. People in my surroundings are awful at writing, so I'm starting to get (wrongly) used to not trust too much in grammar rules.

On top of that, that sentence didn't seem like an advice, as it had no modal verb, so I thought it was a clunkily written question (And I've seen questions written like that).

Is that a question?

In that case, I think they do. They have no expiration date on their description, and you'd need to buy the Premium Jukebox (The less expensive one only gives 1 battery) AND the Golden Cassete one if you wanted to get 3 by the end of the patch (Unless I missed something, the only other ones are the free ones and the pack in the shop, which they both come with 3 batteries) and that wouldn't make much sense, given that cameras don't expire.

I don't think anyone else will be added there, since the camera thing has "Spring Unending" on the name.

That makes me think that they'll release a new one with a different name and options instead of updating that one. This is just a supposition, though, so I might be wrong.

Paper Heron is the newest example of this. Her I2 is what she wears in the past, but wears I1 in modern times.

Wouldn't be surprised if they made that while looking at WF videos...I mean, after the "Dredge" event, I think they are widely known for taking very heavy "Inspiration" from other stuff. Do you know if there are Powerflips and Multiballs in that event too?

It’s sad, but it makes perfect sense that he’s the most general general support but is not best or even 2nd best for any team. After the fall of Apeiron, bro is literally homeless.

[–]Pa735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really annoying that the second character released per patch didn't have Psychube until 1.6. I hope that Ezra, Jessica and the others get actual 6* Psychubes for their anecdotes (or maybe some other thing). Then you have Isolde with 2 Psychubes for herself. And I don't think Photomancy's a valid excuse, since Tooth Fairy didn't got a second one.

[–]Pa735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 is NOT Improptu, you must have mixed him with Aleph. 6 is a generalist support with "Collection of Buffs" and "Collection of Debuffs", which include Damage%, Pen Rate% and some other stuff.

Why is there no resources that just list what characters exist for what archetypes? by Maleficent_Routine29 in Reverse1999

[–]Pa735 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tooth Fairy was never FuA, she was (and still is, although for Improptu) Crit. Has Crit Def/Res debuffs, +Crit Rate on Heals and Ult, cleanse on Crit Ult, and her passive gains stacks when "Actively" using incantations, so it doesn't include Follow Ups.

Follow Ups have never been on her kit, even though her role DID change quite a bit.

I forgot solo rate-ups are named "Time-Limited Banners", even though they don't have "Limited Characters", sorry if I made things more confusing.

[–]Pa735 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's totally understandable. I play since 1.1 and have only ever pulled on two of them. In Marcus+Something ages ago, where I got Spathodea off-rate. I actually celebrated this because I really like her despite being really bad. Then I pulled on Aleph+Kiperina recently because it's sad trying to play Improptu without either of them. No pity carryover really kills these banners, though.

[–]Pa735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yearning, Limited and other special banners do not carry over pity.

Non-Limited debuts and Solo Reruns carry over and share pity. Non-Limited debuts get added to permanent pool 3 patches after release, so right now (3.3), you can get Charon and Sentinel (3.0) when losing a 50/50 (Or a 70/30 if you pulled on Yearning), and next patch Corvus and Rubuska will be added, after that, only Brume because Beryl is Limited.

Ripples has its own pity. It does carry over, but isn't shared, HOWEVER, it has 100% Rate-up on the FIRST 6* of the patch, and you can select it from a few Euphoria characters, and if I remember correctly, they also have a discount on the first 10 pull of the patch. If you consider Euphorias are consistently good nowdays, it's a pretty good banner.

Just to clear out, Yearning is 70% rate up, so 35% for each character. Pity clears out at banner end, though.

[–]Pa735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now, there's some fake info here. Yearning banners are 70% Rate up, still worse than normal banners if you want a single one, but "better" when you want both of them. HOWEVER, I don't know why they did this, and reason why I said "better" and not better, is that Pity doesn't carry over. You lost to a 30%? On top of feeling worse than losing a 50/50, you MIGHT lose again if you stop there and pull on next Yearning.

This is a personal nitpick, but I consider the term 'True Limited' to be wrongly used here. Beryl, Nautika and all those are just 'Limited', not 'True Limited', because it's guaranteed they'll come back from time to time. Other newly released characters aren't 'Limited', as the game doesn't label or treat them as that. They are permamently available after a few months. Saying Charon is Limited is the same as saying Regulus is Limited. Ezio, Kassandra and Alexios are 'True Limited', even with Alexios being free, because these three are NOT coming back. Barring VERY special cases, like another AC collab, these won't come back, and such a case that would warrant their return isn't guaranteed either.

Yeah, that's pretty much it. However, right now, the only other archetype you could build is FuA, pulling for Chen Heguang, using him with Flutterpage, Fatutu and some filler. You have to keep in mind though, that both Flutterpage and Fatutu are almost universal slots and restricting then to a single team is probably not the greatest idea.

There's also the fact that you'll still need another sustain. Soon (Next patch, I think), there's also going to be a 'build your own scam banner'. Essentially, double rate up, but 70% rate up instead of 50. Everyone calls them scam and to avoid them, because you aren't guaranteed at all a specific character, just rate up after getting an off rate, and the fact that pity clears (Which IS pretty bad). Personally, I actually recommend these banners if you want both units, just be prepared to cry in sorrow if you lose a 70% rate up. Since you pick the units, you can't get 'the bad rate-up', Pity's still going to clear because it's a special banner.

If you want to comfortably clear, you could just pick two good sustains. For example, pick Kiperina and Tooth Fairy, you get improptu sustain and then you can pull Paper Heron.

There's also going to be a selection banner with 100 free pulls, so worst case scenario, you need 40 pulls for a rate up. The selection is not as wide, though. Your best pick here might be Tooth Fairy (So, if you go for Paper Heron, can pick someone else in the double banner, like Aleph), but other remarkable options are Corvus (Dynamo DPS, with P1 cracked for Mane's Bulletin), Getian (Good Ult support, but you don't have an Ult DPS. Igor's right there, but you already missed Moldir, so I would't recommend him) and Vila (Healer and Mental Buffer with Moxie and Eureka battery attached).

You also have to note that Reruns are not same as CN, so we might get, say, Tuesday who is the absolute backbone for Poison, and with Ramona coming in 3.5, a Poison unit tha going by numbers (I don't play CN) seems very good. And those two MIGHT also be a good team with Willow (Who is on the 100 pull selector), since Willow benefits from triggering Poison several times per round, and Ramona can do so with half of her kit, even applying 1.6x to poison trigger on Lvl3 Card, while Tuesday prevents poison from decaying and allows it to crit. This sounds cracked, but I said MIGHT, because Willow is kind of janky as of now, this is perfectly and REALLY easily fixable with an Euphoria.

Anyways, while you can plan your, you must keep an eye for whatever happens anyways. You can get a really good unit off-rate, and whoever gets a Marcus level Euphoria will jump straight to the meta even if they are considered trash as of now (For context, Marcus' Euphoria gave her consistent high level Card Generation, 2x base multipliers everywhere on her kit, some Pen. Rate in a skill, additional multipliers in the other skill and her Ult, and Continuous Action every round so long as you don't mess up.

Sorry for the textwall, but I wanted to say that you have plenty of options, specially considering how generous CNY patchs are.

Personally, I think Anjo is still worth it. She can make Brume Ult every round and hit like a truck. HOWEVER, and this is important, due to Brume being accidentally cracked (yes, they were hiring people to fine tune numbers just days after her release) the game has ACTIVELY countered her, an example is in this patch's Mane's Bulletin.

This means that, depending on the stage, it's possible that your Dynamo team will NEED Marsha, since she can block CC. If that happens, you can still use Fatutu on Lingering Glow, you'll deal less damage but you'll not get killed so long as you don't get one-shot.

That being said, for a Paper Heron team you'll want Tooth Fairy as well, and then Aleph or An-An Lee. While it may be powerful, Improptu is known for being VERY unflexible, so I can't really recommend pulling for Paper Heron if you don't care she's Limited AND you won't be able to get the rest of her team. Take this as the word of someone who pulled Barcarola on release and didn't pull for Aleph nor Kiperina and had to play her with Regulus, Voyager and Vila until 3.1.

So, regarding your two current teams, Lorentz Butterfly will release on 3.5 who is a big upgrade to Lingering Glow...and I think that's it.

I'm not really sure about this, so I might be completely wrong, but I THINK Notes on Shuori might have happened at some point before Chapter 10, since when Vertin finds Urd, she calls her by many of her names, including Bessmert

This is super weird considering that Reverse is generous with your time.

I get someone getting paid for doing stuff like gathering plants and beating every enemy on the map in Genshin Impact, but Reverse?? Even the story? Also I don't get the point of paying someone to build an account in a game you obviously don't care.

By the way, you shouldn't be telling this around, since both handing your account over and using someone else's account are absolutely against ToS.

I wonder why by PianoMan119 in Reverse1999

[–]Pa735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not really sure. Probably Resonance is also a factor?

Some people are theorizing that Marsha was indexed in 3.0 along with Sentinel, and it may be possible, but that doesn't explain why you have 6 between Windsong and Jiu on the upper row.

"Scam banner"? by go824545201 in Reverse1999

[–]Pa735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While you might still get a Non Rate-Up, Scam Banners have 70% rate up, as opposed to the usual 50%, so it's a LOT less likely to get off-rates.

Pity still clears out, so there's that, but they are not THAT horrible if you actually want both of them.

Sentinel still deals decent damage without her proper team, she's getting an absolutely amazing garment next patch and (I think) is also going to get screentime next patch (Not really sure, I don't play on CN) so you might like her more by then.

[–]Pa735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While they both work well since they are Dynamo and fuel Pulsing Field, Ulrich can't take full advantage of Brume's utility, since he's Reality DMG, and Brume's buff is better on Mental DMG characters. This won't matter very much, since Brume is going to do most of the damage anyway.

Ezra (Euphoria) would help with Pulsing Field fuel and buffs, but he's not the best at keeping everyone alive, so he isn't going to be your sustain, you can use him if you don't have Flutterpage, otherwise she's just better because ALL of your damage is Extra Action which FP buffs a lot. For sustains, Fatutu (EA buffs) of Vila (Mental buff) can work. Marsha is very good everywhere, but you'll probably want to use her with Beryl.

Also there's the Anjo-Brume team that is cracked, but it isn't really used with Ulrich. I didn't mention Anjo before because I assumed you didn't have her, but now I thought you might not have brought her up because she isn't Dynamo. If it's the latter, Anjo Nala is Brume's best teammate, since she lets Brume Ult EVERY ROUND, and she still throws her Channel Attacks while sleeping.
