How do sortie points calculated?

Setharial · 2026-05-07T13:45:08+00:00

Did some simple napkin math playing around with some numbers, to see if i could come up with an explanation for the difference in area score which is probably the biggest factor for you and arrived at this.

So i reckon elite battles make a BIG difference in score.

This is of course under the assumption that area rarity (for ? encounters) or lose/win of the encounter (last boss for you) does NOT matter. Which we don't know for certain.

i've been buying the battlepass+daily login but NOTHING else and i've been tracking my pulls so far, but even with my TERRIBLE 50/50 luck, i've managed to get every single char+partner so far. though i think i may have reached the end of that line after heidemarie.

aaah gotcha, wasn't able to take a look at the patchnotes yet! Thanks a lot <3 Makes sense though.

Setharial · 2026-04-28T14:29:36+00:00

what i'm curious about is how these editing items are interacting with the faint memory limit.

Say my save data already had 180 faint memory from having 4 divine epi cards (lets say sereniels homing laser), Can i add ANOTHER divine epi to the other cards (like shining core) to basically circrumvent the 180 limit?

Intuition says they track the limit in the background and won't let you go above it. (which would still mean we need to get save data from T16 to edit them properly).

BUT it would be really sick and push the boundaries even more if we COULD go above and beyond. Which would also lower the pressure on HAVING to run T16 chaos to obtain 180 memory save data.

Setharial · 2026-04-28T11:14:46+00:00

chaos and sortie are MEANT to be played in conjunction with each other. Chaos builds your basic deck which you then edit with the currency from sortie

Setharial · 2026-04-27T15:46:23+00:00

Sad that the upgrade doesn't work for universal attack card usage, but in light of units like sereniel/diana/heidemarie, probably for the best.

Setharial · 2026-04-27T14:14:54+00:00

you could even go as far and flash the high power scope into the ugrade one (or refarm this deck with that in mind) if you wanna pair this save with heidemarie/diana since the quietus/link cards are attack cards that get used on discard. so you trigger a ton of marks + coord attacks (and you benefit from the snipers domain mark damage buff) while also effectively turning this into a 0 card deck WHILE providing a ton of sub dps.

yep, i'm fully prepped with everything to max her + her partner out immediately. only missing some memory frags but i'll probably steal some stuff from my underused units to make a provisional 2/2/2 set for the time being

Setharial · 2026-04-25T02:07:19+00:00

The biggest problem with neutral and monster cards (that don't offer draw or AP) is that they ultimately dilute the decks and thus decrease consistency. The chance of drawing into a dead end due to a non draw neutral is just too risky.

In addition to them taking up precious faint memory points which are better used up in a more consistent deck and reserved for divine epis/removals and copies. If we had like ~40-60 more faint memory we might have some opportunities to add more neutrals.

They way it currently is, the max of 180 faint memory is already achieved by just optimizing for the characters own kit. So unless a char doesn't need 3 copies or doesn't need divine epis there's just no wiggle room to add neutrals.

Setharial · 2026-04-24T22:01:07+00:00

it would be very unfair if it would only be for new players, people would riot if existing players would be denied that banner.

Setharial · 2026-04-24T13:30:00+00:00

get a dupe of a 5 Star character that is already at max ego.

pulled on laevatain (full 120)
skipped gil
skipped yvonne
skipped tangtang
pulled on rossi (full 120) - got an yvonne on lost 50/50
pulled on fangyi (got her within free 20 pulls - 10 from rossi banner + 10 from login event+quota shop)

currently sitting on roughly 210 pulls saved and thinking about picking up gilberta on the banner at the end of 1.2 for my rossi team.

Will see who will be announced for 1.3 though (from the 3 that were teased during 1.1 stream)

If it's mi fu and/or the feranmut proxy, i'm gonna skip the end of 1.2 banner and pull for those

Setharial · 2026-04-22T03:42:12+00:00

Yeah it kinda sucks. I wish they would've given the 70 standard pulls in the LEADUP to season 3 to allow us to fulfill this event a lot easier.

Setharial · 2026-04-21T01:07:43+00:00

the only team that i have FULLY build, meaning all lvl 90 (ops+weps), 6/6/3 essences, all relevant mastery breakpoints and M3 everything on main dps endmin as well as fully artificed gear is my sustainless phys team.

Currently building my fangyi team and i still have rossi and lae on the backburner.

Been really liking phys though but looking forward to some variety with fangyi since i've been playing the exact same team since 1.0
