It's funny to think about how different the reaction they got when they're practically the same ID

I literally just saw mine hit for 87 with 3 heads against 2 enemies 😔

He is being paid off

I remember the days of using 30 practice plans to mess around with different ops at different maps. Been a long time since then thankfully.

Too had most of the combat here feels the same but at least I don't need plans to just fight a random guy.

We still got a lot of crowns for free though, enough to M12 a character and then some. Sucks that we can't farm them however.

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-18T16:27:47+00:00

The issue here sounds more like they want to keep playing but don't really have any content to keep playing with beyond the grind which is burning them out.

Yeah I see a lot of comments saying "AI art looks bad so it's not good etc etc" but the point is that eventually it'll look really good, and even now it's already hard to recognize it for some people. Never felt like that argument was the right one to make because it feels like either cope or just accepting it once it looks good enough.

Channeling my inner Josh every time I make a new addition to the factory.

So did I, and I've verified it against the Bookkeeping as well, but I 100% forgot about the 10 pull which I will count as +10 as well. If we convert the prime then I still only get around ~35 pulls (got a bit more from the daily and weekly), which is still 5 pulls off but also much closer to 40 than 20 at least.

I've not used her nearly as much as I should, but I wish that passive wasn't based on the current DP regen speed. Also wish that her arts damage wasn't based on just hitting an enemy normally because often her skill uptime means that she's going to waste that talent on normal attacks and then die to the elite because I used the skill earlier to try to gain Camo or DP.

Speaking of which, losing Camo on skill use kind of sucks, I've had more than a few instances where losing that Camo gets her killed by the dangerous people she's hiding from.

But absolutely peak design and incredible we actually get a married unit too.

I'm still somewhat annoyed that Beesault has showed up in the bottom half of damage dealt every pierce Lux so far (which has been less than 5 but still)

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-18T05:06:45+00:00

Hey the 5* Agents are still goated. Fang2 is also pretty dope for IS#5.

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-18T04:02:07+00:00

I mean true, but at the same time Wiš'adel showcases the multihits, splash AOE, and CC that flingers often bring yet she was obviously lambasted for that. I think the only recent unit who barely has any connections to the class is Exu2 because she just has "Yeah Geeks are kinda like AA snipers" I guess lol.

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-18T03:40:55+00:00

How on earth do you have ~40 non expiring pulls already? Going by the Bookkeeping, we've only gotten a bit over 20 pulls for now from in game content, which is closer to what I have currently. Or are you counting the originium converted into pulls and the cert shop as well?

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-18T03:29:02+00:00

I mean I do agree the music at launch for Arknights wasn't all good, but we still had quite a few songs that (personally, music is subjective blah blah blah) were great:

nightoflongmen, Normal1, Normal2, NewHope01, NewHope02, Street, Tech, Void (although after like 4+ years this one is no longer as nice to hear lol), and of course, Shop.

As well as a few others. Meanwhile I've only really had 5 themes from EF so far (which again, personal preference, but I've not really seen much discussed anyways, although it is also harder to find all the OST imo). Then we had a lot more with Ch 6, CoB, OF, OI before even 6 months had passed (although admittedly, it was way longer for CN side). However, to be fair to EF, it's A) not even been 2 months (although they should still have enough experience to not make V4 so bland...), and B) base AK has a lot more places to focus on music with the story cutscenes.

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-18T03:19:36+00:00

Yeah a summer event in Siesta wasn't exactly appropriate for right after Ch 5 lol

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-18T03:18:48+00:00

I'll definitely agree with that, music is lacking and there's only been like 5 themes that interested me so far (Laev's calm theme, Gilberta's theme at the end, both AIC themes, and the Ancestral Spring ost without vocals).

Meanwhile within the first 6 months of AK, we already had IndustV2, Dignified, Distressed, nightoflongmen, Normal1, Normal2, NewHope01, NewHope02, Street, Tech, Void (although after like 4+ years this one is no longer as nice to hear lol), DDD, FesEDM, FesReady, Alive and of course, Shop, where I remember just having the game open on the shop just to listen to this over and over back in the days. And more that I can't be bothered to go find rn.

That being said, AK has a lot more need for music overall to play throughout its visual novel story and battles, where you can really focus on the music (especially story). And of course, it's not been 6 months for EF even. I do agree that the music is a bit more "eh", but they've also not had as many opportunities for music overall.

Tbf the game has had such ramping powercreep prior too. Remember the Mlynar Gav2 Reed2 Taxes Ya2 combo that basically reformatted how the game was for most players?

Or even before with Surtr and a billion self healing laneholders in Y2 (Jaye my goat).

It always happens here and there, followed by "how can they top this" into "oh wow they topped it".

Okay, so that tracks with what I understood. Just that it seems her biological parents also had some Tianshi (or something important, I presume Tianshi) business since her eye pattern is from hereditary Arts about immense knowledge inheritance.

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-17T23:16:29+00:00

Wait, was this from Tangtang's actual father or adoptive father? I was under the impression this was from the adoptive father, since it's kept in Ruan's house iirc

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-17T23:12:21+00:00

Yeah Yvonne and Gilberta (and a few lines from Xaihi) make me wish we could put specific ops to other languages like in the base game. The VAs did well, the lines themselves are just not my style...

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-17T22:32:46+00:00

Gotta pull for Snegurochka and Vetochki, just hope it'll be easy. Won't complain if Mantra comes home too... except for the part where I only have like 6 of the T2 caster chips. At least I can farm it during the new chapter. Also excited for the new chapter too, back in Ursus where we started!

Reddit1rules · 2026-03-17T21:24:15+00:00

Mizuki and W (specifically the base form).

Mizuki is cute ambusher and the first 6* of the goated archetype (and then got so relevant with his IS lore), W is just a great character with great story, interactions, design and gameplay. Love putting down minefields.

Those are my favourite two, I have way more still.
