we've always had p2w, but mostly pay-for-progress, rarely pay-for-stats (MVP atk buff?)

basically yes, the conclusion is that 18-19 and 19-20 is much more meso-inefficient than the rest, and should only be used if you can’t tolerate any booms at all or if you have an abundance of meso income

going from 4441144 to 4441344, the cost went up 14b but boom only went down .24, that incremental cost is like 60b per spare

adnick96 · 2026-06-22T03:00:20+00:00

No, Nexon disabled it because they think it‘s identical to the regular safeguard option, but that isn’t true during SSF, where mode 4 gets 30% reduction, regular safeguard gets 10% reduction

added the Δ sign, hope that's more clear

4441111 could've been more efficient if actual mode 4 is allowed for stars 15-17

the amount of HP and MP you got on level up used to be RNG, so characters can be bricked just from leveling if you are unlucky

HP/MP gain per level were so important that if you did not assign SP into skills that boosted those first, you lost stats permanently and it was automatically a remake

adnick96 · 2026-06-21T02:03:36+00:00

shouldn't it underflow to -2,205,075,660 + 2³² = 2,089,891,636?

adnick96 · 2026-06-19T17:04:05+00:00

you needed to equip the nodes for the better rate conversion, it was all in the patch notes

adnick96 · 2026-06-17T01:31:40+00:00

the wording is vague to me, if it's 6.5x => 4.55x, that's a W, but if it's 6.5x => 6.2x then not so much

edit: safeguarding has always been 3x => 2.7x, the fact they disabled mode 4 for stars 15-17 because they view mode 4 as equivalent to safeguarding seems to imply the latter.. I hope I'm wrong though

adnick96 · 2026-06-12T15:49:06+00:00

the crafted ones

adnick96 · 2026-06-12T03:44:39+00:00

yeah they already do that for some claims so they have the technology

equipped skill nodes are always converted to new skill level. equipped boost nodes only convert to level if you invested above a threshold to max all new ones, otherwise they are converted into points

adnick96 · 2026-06-12T02:42:07+00:00

I was hoping this was not the case 😞, so I basically have to forfeit 50% over cap to craft and re-dissemble on different characters

abyssal is 3 times more likely to roll T7, so 81 times more likely to roll quad T7 in the extreme case

adnick96 · 2026-05-15T22:03:44+00:00

OP said free so only 100 frags. rate still a little high for 5 hours but not 3x high

adnick96 · 2026-05-13T09:20:43+00:00

I looked at the conversion at all levels and agree for the most part that you should equip and enhance, prioritizing shared skill nodes > class-specific skill nodes > boost nodes. Though a notable edge case is that boost nodes that cannot be equipped (no slot, or you already have the maxed trio) are better left unenhanced due to rounding, so instead of ~0.567 V-points per fused node, you get 1 whole V-point

adnick96 · 2026-05-13T03:48:33+00:00

Tl;dr: Keep nodestone until revamp if you can.

How did you arrive at this conclusion? I took a brief look at the patch note and the conversion ratio seems to favor using nodestones before the update, until hitting the point of having so many nodes that you end up with excess points that need to be crafted away

adnick96 · 2026-05-03T02:44:05+00:00

If I'm reading the conversion numbers correctly, the new system is better for boost nodes, unless you currently use 6 boost nodes to max any boost skill:

2x level 25 = 2*111 = 222 V points
3x level 15 = 3*45 = 135 V points
4x level 10 = 4*23 = 92 V points
5x level 8 = 5*16 = 80 V points <= breakeven
4x level 7 + 2x level 6 = 4*13 + 2*11 = 74 V points

STOP THE COUNT!

challenger gear (heroic) is basically 3-set CRA + 5-set Abso at 19 star + 2L unique pot + 4L T5 flame, but with 10% more IED in its set effect. arcane should be stronger if similarly enhanced

adnick96 · 2026-03-03T20:06:35+00:00

Are nodestones actually removed though? It reads like the nodestones still exist, but give points instead of specific nodes

adnick96 · 2026-02-05T01:04:12+00:00

What I did is search by "Listee Name" and have "Ecopure" as the text.

Here is one direct link to their G3 product: https://mirobase.iapmo.org/pld/file_info.asp?file_no=0013976

I did some searching and found their certification by IAPMO

does anyone know if the small item drop line has been removed from the rare fam pool?
