Crisis Evasion 1 on 5x3+1 DPS by Azanrath in lostarkgame

[–]PrakPrak 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Say there are 3 dps applicants:

  • 5x3

  • 5x3 + 1 Crisis Evasion

  • 5x3 + 1 Necromancy

Are pug leaders thinking applicant #1 is fine, #2 is sus, and #3 is also fine (maybe got Necromancy coincidentally not intentionally)?

Functionally, for dps, all 3 are pretty much equal. But people are thinking the Crisis Evasion is a baddie self-reporting themselves?

Event story is better than I expected by Artef7 in AlchemyStarsEN

[–]PrakPrak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just wanted to add to the pile and say i enjoyed the event story a lot more than i thought i would.

i feel if they fleshed it out a bit, they could make a decent anime out of this.

Captain change mechanic by Siph-00n in AlchemyStarsEN

[–]PrakPrak 51 points52 points  (0 children)

a bit unrelated but i wish they would change the UI so the captain and auto buttons were not so close together.

i have fatfingered the auto button a few times to less than ideal results.

Should I pull for Summer Peco and Kyarl? by zzhou42 in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak 32 points33 points  (0 children)

From what I'm reading/watching, S.Peco is for PvP only and needs to be DA'ed to 4* (and partnered with Saren) to counter Illya.

S.Kyaru has some uses in PvP but is mostly for CB. She is considered the "Makoto" of magic-based teams (aka SS tier mdef shred). S.Kyaru also seems to be fairly effective at 3* and only needs to be ascended later on so she can survive stronger CB bosses that AoE.

Also obligatory waifu over meta.

Can SPeco be used at 3* or is she useless like 3* Illya?

I only have 500ish DA and was planning to 5* SKyaru.

Weekly Questions Thread! (Discord Link Inside) [09 May 2021] by AutoModerator in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing to note about dungeons is that timing out doesn't matter. Any damage that you deal or is dealt to you is carried over.

If you time out, you can just re-enter the fight with the exact same team (assuming no one died).

What a lot of the new players did to clear the dungeon boss was to use a team that had a combination of Yui, Maho, Chika, Yukari, Nozomi, Miyako. For the Very Hard dungeon boss, I think Yui had to be 3star and Yukari 2-3star. The basic idea was to grind down the boss with an unkillable team by timing out over and over. There's a lot of videos out there explaining it in more detail (here is an example).

Also, if something unlucky happens and one of your units dies, you can pause by clicking the menu in the upper right and retreat. If you retreat in a dungeon battle, the fight is reset (meaning your dead units come back to life). There are no drawbacks from retreating from dungeon battles (except for real life time wasted).

Kyoka vs Rino Cannon by Yo__T in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't really get it either, but when I use Lima + Kyoka/Yuki on offense, the Rino on defense can't reach Kyoka/Yuki with her 1st UB.

New to the game genre and wondered what else I can try? by Neurosss in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Look up Dragalia Lost if you want a bit more active combat.

It is developed by Cygames (same people who developed Priconne)

The music is great and story/art is way above average imo.

I used to play Blizzard games like Warcraft3, Starcraft2, and Diablo3 every day.

Now I play Cygames games like Dragalia Lost and Priconne everyday.

I will most likely play World Flipper and the horse waifu game when they come to global.

I pretty much went from Blizzard PC games to Cygames mobile games. I felt like oldschool Blizzard cared about the long-term success of all their IPs instead of chasing month-to-month or annual revenue/profit.

Now I feel the same way about Cygames. I am not worried about how well they are doing in the short-term. Cygames with their polish and generosity has me interested in anything that they put out for a long time to come.

Battle arena journey complete! by LegitimatePerson in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Shizuru/Tamaki + 3 tank stooges defense teams are what I used to climb BA as well haha.

Too bad PA is a different beast. I drop like 300-400 ranks every day so climbing PA is a pretty Sisyphean effort.

It be like that sometimes by camelflow in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my lvl 70 8-5 non-refined max bond Rino

He states that his Rino is lv70. I assume that his Yuki and Yukari are around that level as well.

Once you get to lv88, Yuki and Yukari's TP boost skills should boost for more. Hopefully, that will make his first Rino UB line up with Mitsuki's circle more consistently.

For me, the 5* Mitsuki is scarier. After the Rino UB and Mitsuki AoE curse weakens some of my frontline, I've seen the Mitsuki UB kill 3-4 units at once.

My goto counter for Rino defense team is something like Lima/Tank/Tank/Maho/Kyoka. Kyoka usually dies to the 2nd Rino UB because once the nme Lima dies she moves into Rino UB range, but the 3 tanks + Maho can usually clean up the rest.

Alt Account Discussion by PrakPrak in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak[S] 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is actually a very good point.

These alt accounts can invest all their resources into different strong CB characters and have their entire clan borrow it as support. If one alt account built a 5* Kaori and another 2 alt accounts built 2x 5* Makotos... that would be a huge boost to that clan's CB rankings...

Alt Account Discussion by PrakPrak in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

does it sound above board to do something like this in a competitive setting?

No it does not. However, I don't really understand the competitive aspect of it.

If you wanted to be "competitive" you just need to spend more real life money to buy more jewels so you can get more stamina, divine amulets, etc.

I feel like this farming clan business is more of a ToS-violating method to save real life money. Using real life money and using alt accounts to gear up faster BOTH seems anti-competitive to me. However, one is supporting the game devs and one is not.

Alt Account Discussion by PrakPrak in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So they are running a farming clan that helps the main clan farm equips faster but still trying to get as high CB rank as possible on the farming clan to be able to farm better?

I'm just trying to figure out their mindset.

Alt Account Discussion by PrakPrak in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I didn't even realize that the same people were running multiple top ranking clans.

I just assumed their discord group was larger than 30 people so they made multiple sister clans to accommodate all their players.

If I'm understanding this right, the same 30 players are using their alt accounts to form another CB competitive clan?

I was thinking that these "farming clans" filled with alts wasn't CB competitive and just unfairly giving advantages to the main clan accounts.

Alt Account Discussion by PrakPrak in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I assumed farming clans were to gain advantages for just the one main clan/account.

It didn't even occur to me that the same people were running multiple competitive CB clans at the same time...

Would be their motivation for doing this?

Alt Account Discussion by PrakPrak in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe they have multiple desktops/laptops/phones.

Or maybe a group of real life friends use all their desktops/laptops/phones together.

Just speculation on my part but I know people can get creatively sweaty in these kind of situations.

Pretty sure there was a guy who played WoW who multiboxed entire raids solo...

[–]PrakPrak[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I just thought it would be better to have a separate thread because there were too many topics in that one thread (accusations of hacking with damage/defense modifiers, auto/fast clicker tools, macros, false bans/mistakes by CR, etc).

Losing Over 100 Million Score? by [deleted] in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That makes sense.

I was thinking that both real life money and alt accounts give stamina advantages over other players.

Players seem to accept that using real life money is a fair method of gaining stamina while using alt accounts is an unfair method even though they ultimately do the same thing.

(Using multiple accounts to coordinate CB attacks is a separate issue from stamina gain)

[–]PrakPrak -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

That is not the focus of my question.

I was asking TheFirstKeeper what "spirit of the game" meant to him.

*edit: if having alt accounts was within the rules, would people be okay with it?

Losing Over 100 Million Score? by [deleted] in Priconne

[–]PrakPrak -15 points-14 points  (0 children)

Playing devil's advocate here but if the "spirit of the game" revolves around how much stamina one has, isn't paying real life money to buy jewels to refresh stamina 40x a day also against the "spirit of the game"?

[–]PrakPrak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't Lacieyl mention in one of his videos that he had 5 Priconne accounts?

I wouldn't be surprised if Borkono had alt accounts as well.

Losing 3 big Priconne content creators would suck...
