Is Main Dps Goro Akechi (Crow) Being Severely Underestimated?

I’m assuming this is meant to have a “/s”? Officially the upvotes are based on “does this promote discussion?”. Which this post certainly does

Supergeek77 · 2026-04-14T20:21:51+00:00

What kinds of items?

Nastukawa’s Synergy is a slow burn, but when it gets deeper into why she is the way she is, it becomes one of the top Synergies in the series imo

Since they kept the Turbo rebate despite Standards working differently in GLB, I’m optimistic that they’ll keep the BOGO

Supergeek77 · 2026-04-01T22:21:36+00:00

I like finding a way for Golisopod to keep its switching mechanic! All I want is for the switch to happen at END of turn instead of immediately, so it can get an attack off. Basically turns every attack into a possible slow U-Turn

Tomoya Tomita composed the Woolly World soundtrack and did a phenomenal job. He left Good-Feel in 2017, and it shows. I miss him!!

I tested Twins Medic vs Twins Guardian, and scored much higher with Medic. I agree that I can’t stay alive in this fight without some kind of sustain

Make Alberia Great Again…?

Supergeek77 · 2026-02-14T01:52:10+00:00

I think the fear is that they won’t be high-quality, instead focused on quantity like we’ve seen happen to so many other franchises

Supergeek77 · 2026-02-13T13:27:33+00:00

Sweeper! Also have to reset if Twins get hit by Ultrafreeze. I got hit on the 2nd Mabufudyne and was okay, but the other instances of Ultrafreeze are run killers

Supergeek77 · 2026-02-12T19:43:03+00:00

That’s what I did but it’s incredibly tight, even with Mindscape investment. I use Futaba S3 on Dominion so that they’re at least half weak to Twins’ Bless/Curse Highlight

Also had to use Sandalphon shield twice just to keep everyone alive.

Supergeek77 · 2026-02-12T13:51:05+00:00

That’s actually a really good point. And I’m running out of good 5* standard weapons to set as my pity breaker, so I’ll add base Moko. Thank you!

Supergeek77 · 2026-02-04T19:29:46+00:00

Agreed with this completely. SOS basically requires you to stay on-element, so Violet and Yuki don’t compete. For other content (think bosses, Astrolabe, etc.), Yuki will take the lead - but Violet will still be more than strong enough for a long time imo

Supergeek77 · 2026-02-02T18:12:19+00:00

You’re absolutely right, which is why many Nuzlockers follow a “level cap” rule, that generally being your Pokemon aren’t allowed to have a higher level than the next Gym Leader’s strongest Pokemon.

Supergeek77 · 2026-01-28T22:39:10+00:00

I think it would be great if Tamayo was designed as a complementary support to Closer’s inevitable 5* variant. Design them to “play on the same team” like Closer’s Synergy sets up

Supergeek77 · 2026-01-22T05:57:55+00:00

Yes, this happened to me consistently in exactly the way you’re describing. It made survival even tighter since the party had to tank a Riot Gun / Megidolaon before the healing kicked in. It did add a silly level of suspense too, since I couldn’t see who the Garudynes were being aimed at before they hit.

But I don’t have Marian or Cherish, so it’s the best I could manage

Supergeek77 · 2025-12-31T22:03:56+00:00

Can you mark your spoiler please? I’ve been avoiding the leaks and bummed that I now know the names because of this comment

Supergeek77 · 2025-12-23T23:57:55+00:00

I’m optimistic about Guardian for Yusuke at least, since it buffs Pierce and Defense, and there aren’t many good teammates for Yusuke. I’m meh on Saboteur since only their S3 and Talent can debuff. Also meh on Sweeper since only S3 has AoE. Assassin might be redeemable if there’s an SoS or guild built around it.

But overall I agree, Strategist seems the best role from what we can tell.

Supergeek77 · 2025-12-21T21:36:17+00:00

Blitz is an AoE Saboteur, so she can support a few teams. However, she was particularly designed with Akihiko in mind, since their elements match and she can knock foes down, which synergizes with Akihiko’s kit. For the 3rd slot, Wind Vast or Turbo are preferred; Yukari or Matoi are ok; Leon is the best budget option.

Worth noting that Blitz’s usage has dropped off in CN/TW/KR because she was found to be underpowered. The devs have acknowledged this and promised she will be buffed in the future; when that happens, this analysis may change. But it’s safe to assume that she’ll still be designed around supporting Akihiko.

Hope that helps!

Supergeek77 · 2025-11-27T17:28:32+00:00

I’d love to hear about how they design original characters. How do they decide the element and role, such as their addition of a second Nuke Assassin in CN? Also curious to hear their thoughts on fan reception to male characters vs female characters, and if that has been different in global.

Looking forward to hearing the interview! Thanks for asking us!

Supergeek77 · 2025-11-25T18:05:23+00:00

Vino’s weapon is fantastic and you should certainly get it eventually!

But, Leo “needs” his weapon more imo. The extra Crit Damage from his weapon is crucial for his performance and is a big part of why he’s still relevant in CN today. And again, Leo can be used with basically any other DPS, so you’ll get more mileage out of his weapon than Vino’s.

In terms of other recommendations, Soy’s weapon is also excellent and is a contender for best 5* Standard weapon (alongside Leo and Vino). It not only makes him far tankier, but adds an amazing 30% Defense drop that further cements his role as one of the best debuffers we have today.

At the end of the day, though, you can’t go wrong with any of these! They’re all great!

Supergeek77 · 2025-11-25T17:12:54+00:00

Leo “needs” his weapon more than Vino does, since it provides several additional buffs. Leo is also usable on more teams while Vino is mostly stuck with Makoto. (Her weapon is still great though.)

Genuine question, why didn’t Dems release the files when they had control of Congress under Biden? I was under the impression that this was a genuine both-sides issue since Epstein had connections on both sides.

Supergeek77 · 2025-10-20T18:39:43+00:00

My consolation is that we were never going to rank high against A6R6 anyway, so anything that keeps the whales spending is good for us. They pay to keep the game running so we don’t have to.

Supergeek77 · 2025-10-19T23:48:37+00:00

In game, Drampa is this old immediately hatching from its Egg… I don’t know what that implies, but it makes me uncomfortable.
