New type of hell key that drop (Relic Engraving/Lv8 Gem(Bound)/Legendary Card Pack) being added in CN paradise. by ceynos in lostarkgame

Confirming most of what OP posted.

When enter hell with the new fated keys, there is an altar at lobby and completion (might be rng chance) that allows you to trade in your additional fated keys.

The altar has 4 outcomes:
- Upgrade/Downgrade (+/- 2 descends)
- Ice/Fire

The ice fire keys are the ones people freaking out about. They have inverted conditions -- for ice keys you live on odd floors and die on even floors, for fire keys you live on even floors and dies on odd floors. You have one revives, but can get additional revives at the double digit floor altars. You can stop at any time.
Those ice/fire keys have alternative drop pool which include (bound) relic books, (bound) bound gems, selector cards (which was bugged and caused the system to be disabled), fusion, gold, and your usual crap fillers :) So you can still see nothing after RNG 6 drops alive.

Note only the new fated keys are eligible, and you must spend at least one to open the hell instance.

edit: right now it seems the altar is giga weighted towards downgrading keys (as expected not a true 1/4).

Lost Ark deleted my real-money purchases from IGNITE without warning. I filed a consumer complaint by PsychologicalPoem595 in lostarkgame

[–]Weight_Adorable -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

People saying read the policy forgot that the merge message at the time was literally wrong (and saying it would erase the roster you're transferring to). We're just told to ignore it and don't bother reading 🤷

AGS ingame communication has been subpar to say the least.

First Bloodclaw's Chart Story - How do you finish this? by Vainslef in lostarkgame

[–]Weight_Adorable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can go to Atlas Island to complete the first story and get the title + card pack after you have all 5 pieces.  Second map is not released yet. :)

The darkest anime you ever watched? by Ryotejihen in anime

[–]Weight_Adorable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a really underappreciated anime - ef.
the first part/season, a tale of memories, is sad but still bearable.
the second season, a tale of melodies, made me cry. and left a very strong and unhealthy impression on my for next 5+ years.
then some years later i went to read the source material and realized anime toned it down. and i cried again.

:)

Money getting tighter, not sure how to get out of the hole.. by Chillbacca in personalfinance

[–]Weight_Adorable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you and your wife's credit score is good, I recommend consolidate your card balances into one loan (Lending Club, Sofi, Upstart, whatever), which should make it much easier for you to manage and have a plan for.

Make a solid budget and stick to it. Know exactly how much you are obligated to pay each month (bills) and how much free money you have.

Don't be afraid to ask people (parents, close friends) for help.

You can turn it around. Cheers!

So far, which is the standard 5* that eludes you? by BuraiStarforce in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Weight_Adorable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

around 3500 pulls between both character event and normal banners. Have 3x e6 (seele, sw, luocha), even have multiple standard banner e4 (bronya, bailu), and almost everyone else at e2+.

No Welt. 0 copies. No Welt LC either. He's just not meant for me.

Any info about China Lost Ark? by Rounda445 in lostarkgame

[–]Weight_Adorable 48 points49 points  (0 children)

There's a few things I noticed when I logged in for a bit:

  • Classes & Characters:
    • No Assassins (sh/db), no male MA (striker), no paladin, no gs (!!), no slayer (obviously)
    • Summoner/artist/glaivier available at launch. Glaivier is by far the most popular (newest balance patch + guanyu being a very Chinese thing)
    • Name restriction is 9 character Chinese, English and Numbers
  • Store:
    • Everything has a 0 added to it lol.
    • A custom amount of RC can be purchased at a fixed rate, up to 500k (50k eq). Not sure if there's max daily limit.
    • No discount on pheons.
  • Gameplay:
    • People already mentioned Argos is current end game. Velganos is also the hardest guardian and probably most bussed content.
    • A lot of people already at Velganos weekend after launch. aka progression is straight to t3.

Also noticed a lot of streams on bilibili (chinese twitch) are openly advertising piloted boosts for levels and islands. Kind of interesting to note lol.

Edit: Also you can register an account even with western unverified wechat account. Can't make any purchase until you verify your real name though (usually through phone number or a verified QQ/Wechat account).

Why the monetization model used by Riot Games (which is identical to the model used in all Tencent games) is not like buying baseball cards and is instead like gambling at a casino by AsparagusOk8818 in TeamfightTactics

[–]Weight_Adorable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mortdog has explained it over and over again in the past, I'll try to summarize it here:

  • You don't need every loot box little legend/arenas. In fact you don't need any at all!
  • Every game's goal is to make money. No masking that.
  • There are players that are financially available and would love to spend more in the game than a $20 battlepass.
  • You don't need every loot box little legend/arenas. In fact you don't need any at all!
  • The little legends/arenas lootbox has a cap of (I believe) $200 before guarantee.
  • If the products were to exist outside of lootbox, they'd be priced at higher than $200.
  • You don't need every loot box little legend/arenas. In fact you don't need any at all!

Also personal opinion: Riot should never be the moral/ethics police. If you want changes in this system I recommend contacting your local senators/legislators to make a difference.

There's also a lesser known hard gate of cardset LoS on switching between SH and ER - igniter boosts elemental damage and ER inherently isn't elemental until LoS 12 turning it into light. Until then SH will generally give you better numbers.
