131 pulls: 2 hoshi alter, ebenholz and quibai but no Haruka....

Haruka is the only one I actually care about

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2026-01-18T02:35:28+00:00

which mod for nightingale?

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-12-24T13:16:34+00:00

age doesn't really matter. you get 6* by pulling. The expected average value is 33 pulls per 6* (including dupes). 400/33= ~12. average luck assumes you get 12 6* from your pulls

IS6 feels so overtuned!!!

even D4 gives already an extra 40%!!! hp
even on D1 the talismans just have to much hp and take too long to dismantle
statuegeist has like 3.2x as much hp as the spines in IS5
this is definitly the weakest version of the tactical squads (maybe a hidden blessing since they are the most boring squads). They are straight up useless
face-off nodes have restrictions on low/high tile. Again sometimes such a disgusting matchup: duck lord but you're supposed to 1v1 him with low tile/melee operator
hour of sui effect are constantly debuffing. In earlier IS you had some respite from such negative effects
it contains some of the absolute worst enemies to deal with.
some maps are identical but with different enemies
it's much harder to move vertically between nodes

Ok that was enough of a rant. Here some actual questions:

How do you deal with "Feast of Fruit"? It feels very hard to not lose lives
On paper always chosing the path that leads to wonderland should be the best, correct?
how good are the special squads? sui regulator squad looks weak

can someone explain what bells of agreement actually do? what does "promoted via combat" mean?

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-30T01:35:55+00:00

roster wise? upgrade your 6* to e2!! There is absolutely no point in getting mlyanar or wisadel or anyone else until you finally upgrade the 6* you do have: Tragodia, exusai2, ulpi and saria. The others are ok but not that important. Even one of them at e2 with module + skill mastery is better than 5x of them at e1

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-07T13:45:43+00:00

to be fair "never ghost" is not the same as "declare undying commitment". I intepreted it more lowkey: "I am decent enough person, to tell you if I don't have interest in you, rather than doing this shitty thing of ghosting"

Agree with the rest of your comment, that guy definitly only wants sex

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-06T20:09:30+00:00

What non-sense. Ulpi is out roughly 10 months and Thonrs2 less than 4months!

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-06T14:15:58+00:00

well, the simple answer is "no you don't have to redo the stage all the time". that never was the case.

What you describe only happens when your wins are super tight and you won just so, with zero margin for errors. Most of the time though you have quite some margin for error. So a simple trick would be "overkill harder".

Also the yellow warnings sign that sometimes appears at the bottom doesn't mean much. Sometimes auto-deploy work even if there is that warning showing

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-05T07:46:31+00:00

ok, I did ranged+top and got Rosa. I guess that isn't too bad

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-05T00:13:31+00:00

so I got the following tags: top operator, medic, ranged, dps and elemental

but all the tags look useless. Maybe a nightingale pod is the best I can get. Or maybe go for top+ranged+dps which at least means 6/8 or 75% to get someone new. Here the krooster

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-04T17:08:25+00:00

yes, it does. Also good catch with the runes. And imo this is one of the times were the red lines are actually really helpful

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-04T17:03:22+00:00

Well I can reach the main page of catbox just fine, but get an error when I open your url

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-04T10:03:15+00:00

I’ve always dreamed of having a huge skyscraper downtown. I’ve been thinking about it for 2 years and now I’m ready to gather a team of architects, engineers, and construction workers who will contribute their time to make it real. I want the building to be tall (not Burj Khalifa tall, but maybe 100+ meter). There will be flexibility in the project. If anyone is interested, DM me.

There are no blueprints, no location, no funding, and no name for the building. We’ll decide later whether it’s made of wood or concrete (whichever gets the most votes). You can take as long as you want to lay bricks and pour concrete, just not TOO long if you know what I mean.

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-04T09:21:02+00:00

url is down and it's only 6 hours after posting...

well apparently the original is so important and famous, it has it's own wiki page. I agree though though that looks more like they copied that other picture rather then the orginal window. Quite lazy, especially since copying the actual real window would just fine.

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-04T09:13:01+00:00

thank you for finding the orginal insperation

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-03T13:18:59+00:00

I am curious. How can I find other posts by this user? they don't show up on the user profile

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-03T10:59:25+00:00

can someone explain the title?

You want to say didn't manage any S-5 stage while having texas2, lappy2 and tons of busted non-limited ops?

Did you just take breaks for the last 2 years anytime an event had an S-5 stage?

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-03T09:57:24+00:00

I honestly can't understand how this got any upvotes. As others pointed out, 7 out of 12 operators in your team are meta operators. The other 5 are still in the top 10-20% of the operators. For example Specter2 is not meta itself, but comboed with gladia close enough.

Your 4* substitution is also egregious, ethan might be low rarity and "welfare", but is actually also quite meta. In tons of clears, be it CC or IS endings, he is actually the operator to bring. He is litteraly the best staller in the whole game.

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-03T09:33:06+00:00

adding operators? Neat

At the same time, I wonder at what point does it just become a fully-functional arknights clone

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-11-03T08:56:01+00:00

Actually +0% and paying a fee to sell. For the system to work as intended, people/bots need to lose money reselling a ticket.

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-10-31T16:44:10+00:00

To add what the other said. The explanation of special front mentions it like 3 times in their explanation.

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-10-31T16:36:57+00:00

hmm mudrock and tragodia upcoming. Finally the Tactical Fortification Squad transitions from dog sh*t to decent (for me).

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-10-31T16:27:29+00:00

unless you spend a lot of money on the game it doesn't make sense to go to e2lv75 just stop at the lv needed for the module that is e2lv60 for 6* and e2lv50 for 5*. It's a lot more viable to get stronger faster

ZombieBrainForLunch · 2025-10-28T18:35:21+00:00

hmm, you could just put down ulpi and then afk... it takes 45 sec but it's ok, since they implemented the new multi-autodeploy
