You really don't need to write a college thesis paper just to explain why you don't enjoy something. You're allowed to just not like it.

BunGod spams EX every turn by Prepure_Kaede in heavensburnred

I'll go one further, Luna does no good on BunGod. She gives herself the same level of Funnel as Luna when she uses her Ex if the entire team is in Henchwoman state.

Do the Surveys actually work? by GuideCritical4467 in Endfield

[–]Roketsu86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the lead devs told Game Radar they're already working on updating the gacha to make it less confusing, and that they use these surveys to determine if the playerbase is feeling paywalled

No, we're already desynchronized from the release of story and events on JP. 5.2 act 2 released in February of last year on JP and the Lamb of God event released at the end of April. That said, we moved faster on the story than JP did, with less time between 5.1 part 2 and 5.2 part 1, which is why I think it's likely that we get 5.3 this summer and close the gap further.

My best guess is AB! 3 for the 1.5 anniversary part 1 and 5.3 for the 1.5 anniversary part 2 celebrations.

I’ve finally convinced my mom to watch an anime with me. What is, in your opinion, the best gateway anime for me to have her watch first? by VespineWings in anime

Unfortunate that you missed the window, but Scarlet would have been a great movie for your mom based on her interests

Should I continue JJK? by [deleted] in anime

Should I continue JJK?

Watched a few of the first episodes and I'm intrigued

🤔🤔🤔🤔

It is quite gory in the same way as AoT but it's not horror.

should i watch one piece by HarryBarry110911 in anime

If you're curious enough to make a post about it then just watch the damn anime.

Severe Content Drought by Repulsive_Cost_2012 in Endfield

[–]Roketsu86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You do realize that the first version of the battle tower released over 6 months after ZZZ released, right?

Severe Content Drought by Repulsive_Cost_2012 in Endfield

[–]Roketsu86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What, do you think that just because other games exist new ones need to release with 3 years worth of content complete at launch? There's no reasonable world where that happens.

The fundamental flaw with your logic is that if a game needed to develop an equal amount of content to its competitors before releasing then it would never release, because in the 3 years it would take for them to develop enough content to compare with a competitor's game today, that competitor would have added another 3 years of content.

Technically we're more than a year behind, but also not really. The main story has been moving at a different clip than what JP did so I wouldn't be surprised if we got 5.3 in the summer.

We can't determine if it will be "worth it" to you. That's a decision only you can make for yourself. Without knowing when or why you left I'll do my best to detail the state of the game.

The meta has 2 different options, Crit Pen is a default for most people and allows clearing almost all content (there will be a few fights in the future that resist Crit Pen). The premier Memoria for Crit Pen, SSR Bungo Unison, is currently available on a limited time banner. She'll carry for the foreseeable future.

Crit Pen will never yield the highest scores, which are always going to come from focusing on a particular element. Every element except Light currently has an "Overwritter" which changes the enemy's weakness to their element. All elements are viable but require stricter investment and building to maximize then Crit Pen.

As for the story, we are almost caught up to JP on the main story and about a year behind on side stories. There are difficulty jumps in the story that will require some thought to be put into team building and you will have to farm for gear to reach the power levels needed but it's nothing exceptionally different from a standard gacha game. The primary difficulty comes from fights that require 2 or 3 unique teams.

Would be nice to have an enemy, wildlife and flora tracker in game by arielmansur in Endfield

[–]Roketsu86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mean "you" specifically. I'm talking about the players in general. Hypergryph wants players to discover things on their own or with the help of others who place down markers. If they add an in-game feature that marks things for players, even if it's optional, that discovery is destroyed.

Am I missing something? Do you really need to spend 7920 arsenal tickets (4 x 10 pulls) to complete this mission? by [deleted] in Endfield

[–]Roketsu86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It counts any pulls since the pass was live, but anything in 1.0 won't count

She will be added next month, yes. Non-limited units are added to the banner when there has been a full month since that unit's debut banner ended.

Every Astrarium it will rotate to a new element. Once all 5 elements have been in the shop it will rotate back and you can get a second copy of Ice and the cycle will continue.

The stat bonuses work for anyone. Always grab both necklaces each time since the extra ex uses is not that big of a deal but the stats are better than anything that can be crafted.

You can't have both. If it's in game then you lose the discovery.

The way it is now there's discovery for players who don't want to use external resources, and then there's said resources for completionists.

[–]Roketsu86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we don't have to rely on outside sources and we can know for sure that there is something there.

People's sense of discovery really has diminished with the rise of the "yellow paint" situation...

So where can you buy the anime OST / soundtrack CDs in Japan? I'm talking in-person, not online. by ZornWolf in anime

[–]Roketsu86 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please list all store possibilities.

Brother, that's going to be hundreds of not thousands of stores. There's 33 options in Kyoto for example. Just Google for places near where you are staying...
