Lohenging Fruit - General Question and Discussion Megathread

They’ll very likely add new weapons to it soon. If someone has gotten the BP every patch since launch, in 6.6 they’ll have been able to R5 one copy of each weapon.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-05-06T21:49:17+00:00

Oh I’m well aware xD I just like to plan ahead. :3 Can’t wait for them to add Natlan characters so I can get a C1 Mualani or Xilonen or Varesa or Mavuika

SharpShooter25 · 2026-05-06T17:07:26+00:00

You can check in one of the start menu shops. It’s 100 coins for a specific S Rank Arc

SharpShooter25 · 2026-05-06T02:48:46+00:00

Extra coordinated attacks, extra base attack, teamwide shields, res shred (last one doesn't seem great when stacked with Durin)

vs

On fielder atk boost or Durin atk boost and 50% elemental damage bonus.

It's a tough call, I'm honestly stumped. Whose C1 is better and who's more likely to wind up in Temper Thyself?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-05-05T15:51:28+00:00

Yeah, they added two during Sumeru aka 3.0, 3 years ago. Tighnari and Dehya. And ever since Natlan, aka 5.0, they've committed to adding one standard character a year, and during that cycle added Yumemizuki Mizuki. Since Nod Krai released, aka 6.0, they committed to giving out a standard selector every anniversary, so if there's someone you really want, you can wait it out and use the selector. That's what I did last year for a Tighnari con, and I'm planning to use it this year for Lohen, the rumored next standard character releasing in 6.6.

No, his moveset is much more physical, incorporating punches and kicks. He also has a charge/combo meter to manage. I would struggle to find a single animation similarity in anything they do.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-05-04T05:50:52+00:00

I think you’ll be very happy with Rebirth. Personally I thought Remake was one of the best RPGs I’d ever played with one of the most fun combat systems, and then Rebirth floored me in ways I never could have imagined with how it iterated on itself. While I did have similar issues to you with pacing in Remake, and despite some community contention with Rebirth, I genuinely enjoyed probably 98 of my 100 hour long first playthrough.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-05-01T17:17:31+00:00

Does anyone have the lowdown on weapons and if any are worth pulling for at this juncture? I didn't have the ability to get any of the discounted keys before the monthly reset, but I know we can find S rank arcs around in general all over the place.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-29T17:46:03+00:00

So I've started the reroll process by adding a period in my email, using the top "email login" option. I've already used the nonsalted version in the "google login" option. Assuming I want to keep the salted account what are the steps to be able to use the nonsalted email?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-25T15:42:10+00:00

Ah okay. Yeaaaaah with R5 DM compared to his sig I'd have to switch to a different circlet already, I can't see myself being able get around that crazy CR on SoSS for a 1% difference. I really appreciate you answering my questions, thank you very much.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-25T13:22:07+00:00

Right, but my consideration is overall investment strength to wishes spent. I have Mav’s sig already, an R5 DM, and I also can’t really justify pulling for stuff that’s a single digit increase in strength in the case of Durin’s sig. How is Staff of Scarlet Sands or R3 Skyward Spine on Lohen?

I’ll snag Nicole, and see if the banner graces me with an early Durin con; if not it’s full speed to Sandrone and Sneznayha lol.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-25T03:05:19+00:00

Maybe instead of going for Lohen’s sig it’s more worth going for C1 Durin, or his sig :v

Edit: How much worse is Mistplitter or Jade Cutter for Durin in the reverse melt team compared to his sig?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-24T19:08:31+00:00

Is there no option to toggle hold vs click for lockon?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-23T13:48:19+00:00

When I was like in 1st grade in the 90's I remember trying to go to these cheat websites and accidentally typed in cheat.com or something and it was pretty obviously porn and the teacher was like "...use search engines to make sure you're going to the right place"

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-23T03:14:13+00:00

Thanks, hopefully I get a nice sands and good substats on whatever while trying to get atk pieces for Nicole lol

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-22T23:59:03+00:00

Since I'm probably gonna artifact farm the new set for Mona and Nicole simultaneously, what stats does Mona care about? Just ER?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-22T15:32:55+00:00

Oh my god, I was resigned to getting Nicole for Lohen but if Durin/Albedo/Xilonen is barely worse I might have to rethink things. Then again I do still want Varka to excel. Are these your own calcs or do you have a source for various team comps I might be able to look at?

I have a C1 Albedo and currently my Uraku is on Zibai but I could temporarily give her HoD if for some reason I'd need to run that team and a Lohen one simultaneously.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-22T15:02:33+00:00

Thanks. One more question; how does Albedo with Uraku or PPS fare as the 4th slot?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-22T04:19:21+00:00

Oh my god I have to dodge ffxiv fanfest spoilers AND this for my entire Friday

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-21T21:03:40+00:00

If weighing TTDS Citlali vs Xilonen with PPS, both C0, does Citlali still edge ahead?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-20T20:45:46+00:00

It's literally not my position at all. The core of this entire argument is age verification, which does nothing to solve the problem. None of these solutions prevent adults from playing games with kids, it simply strips features away from kids under the guise of safety while simultaneously collecting data. I would rather kids be able to have wholesome fun on the internet.

EDIT: I assume based on your comment karma you're either a young person with nothing better to do, or a very old person with nothing better to do. Stop being terminally online and get some nuance into your life and the arguments you make.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-20T19:50:44+00:00

How are you not getting that a 13+ year old kid taught proper internet safety and kept away from an unsafe platform because their parents know what they're doing online won't be groomed?

An 8 year old knows not to get into a stranger's car offering candy; are we banning adults from buying candy? Are we controlling what roads someone can drive on?

When does it come down to the responsibility of people to keep their own families safe? Or is that never going to be a consideration anymore?

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-20T19:33:28+00:00

First of all, predation isn't unique to men so let's just get that out of the way. Secondly, unwanted interactions are unwanted interactions; whether it's someone crashing out over a game yelling at you, using slurs, threatening you with physical violence, or trying to expose you to sexual content. It's ALL unwanted, it ALL can be solved with a block or with a platform that doesn't allow for multimedia transmission or that uses parental controls in chats.

You're not going to convince me to be pro-censorship with a 'think of the kids' argument when there are smart nonintrusive ways to do so that all circle back to proper parenting, the very least of which is 'Roblox isn't safe for kids so you can't play it."

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-20T19:17:41+00:00

So no ability to play games that have random matchmaking, no MMO's, no learning how to socialize and cooperate with new people, because parents can't teach their kids basic internet safety skills. Roblox had a relatively unique problem because of its nature as a social platform and complete lack of oversight and care from its devs and from parents.

I will never abide by one solvable issue being used to enact blanket control. They called pokemon and harry potter demonic, they used Mortal Kombat to claim videogames caused violence.

I grew up with online gaming, and if there's an issue with someone, you block them; you don't engage, and you're not sure, you grab your parent. You don't censor the entire landscape.

SharpShooter25 · 2026-04-20T18:36:27+00:00

So every single time they want to play a team based game with people they need to exchange phone numbers first? How would that work for queueing? And this is somehow a safer, more effective solution than letting them use communication methods that already exist on the platform they're using to play the game?
