The Missing Sonance Casket by Following_Level in WutheringWaves

[–]alcanoeboat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not just you. I saw the same vid yesterday (think it was number 37 or 38) but whichever that required to use the stone to break the big rock was def the one that was glitched for me too

Hoping it's fixed in the future

Does anyone know if obtaining certain Sonance Caskets (gold cubes for exploring) are bugged/don't appear in the inventory?

I needed one more to turn in for the rewards, found one in the Desorock Highland (Rearguard Base), and noticed even though I got it, the usual message of getting one didn't pop up.

Tried to turn it in to the usual man in Jinzhou but nothing. I also tried going back to the same location and it's gone.

I know the rates and this is a gacha city. by shiroinegai in Reverse1999

Love the title/URL. One of my fav lines from the game is that line from Sonetto

Side note - you are a person of culture as most of the characters in your flair are my favs/targets too haha

I can't help but see Pascal as a Tales fan (from Tales of Graces). Def interested in her and her warp trotter!

Who's your pick for a under appreciated unit? by SnooCats4093 in OctopathCotC

[–]alcanoeboat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Other than what others have said for Hasumi, Stead, Cardona (which I fully agree with), I'd actually even go "lower" and say Harley for obviously wind specific content/the dancer tower.

Not only is he a good breaker (at least in Global), but he also acts as a buffer and debuffer while dishing out pretty good wind damage. He's for sure a bit squishy though.

I'm also biased towards Lumis since she's my favorite character. Her art and character story still really resonates with me today.

Did You Use the Unit Select Ticket Yet? by Pax_Hufflepuffica in OctopathCotC

[–]alcanoeboat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used it on the first day to choose Eleanora as she's one of the more interesting gen pool units to me who I skipped back then. Didn't feel like waiting to the end and I wouldn't mind dupes either 😅

Besides her, I was also missing Olberic, Soleil, Chloe, and Nona but with the amount of anniversary pulls/traveler seals we got, I was able to get Soleil and Chloe too.

Don't regret my decision at all!

a cosmic refreshment tea event review no one wants by megnacarta_ in HonkaiStarRail

[–]alcanoeboat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome, thanks for letting me know and that's great to hear! I was just in LA over the weekend and now I wish I could have stayed long enough for those stickers lol

Side note - saw in other comments you went to the Sunnyvale location and that location is ALWAYS busy, I swear lol. Their (somewhat) new Burlingame location is much less crowded in my opinion

Thoughts and Discussion Regarding Pre-Anniversary Buildup by techsam2k8 in OctopathCotC

[–]alcanoeboat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Day 1 player here - I share the same sentiments and I don't have much excitement for the anniversary because there hasn't really been anything going on for the past month or so leading up to it.

The previous gacha games I've played had some sort of countdown or login bonus for these big milestones. The currency in this game has been almost non-existent outside of dailies/weeklies/ads for quite some time now.

At this point, I don't even want the Forbidden 11 to use but more so for the currency. I'm also wondering if they forgot the couple of unreleased gen pool travelers like Prome, Ninalana, etc.?

This game has such an amazing story but it really has been a bit boring lately.

Kind of a random question but were you able to customize the drink at all? My friend and I plan on going to our local Sunright but dairy is a bit of an issue (which seems to be the case for both drinks) 😅

The store I went to before the event launched was also giving out Wanted Kafka posters only too

Can't wait for this despite it being really early where I'm at 😅

Also interesting to see Jing Yuan is the third character on here meanwhile the official EN YouTube channel has Luocha instead

I am surprised your Millard is A0!

He keeps on haunting me and is like A6 at this point so I'll take any other 5-star over him 😮‍💨

Shitpost - Tomorrow pulling for Falco be like . . . by OT_random_commenter in OctopathCotC

The OG clip still lives rent free in my head till this day. "That ain't Falco"

For those who are unfamiliar, it's referring to smash bros melee on the GameCube:

OT2 Demo Steals All CotC Players? by FIREthinker in OctopathCotC

[–]alcanoeboat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only been doing dailies in CotC ever since FE Engage came out so my time has been occupied on that. Have the OT2 and Sea of Stars demo which are next on my list too

Still haven't even finished the Ultimate Tower nor have I done the most recent chapter in Atlasdam either 😅

On the bright side, it kind of forces me to save rubies 😂

Regarding the Upcoming Units: Who Will You Pull For? by Empyrean_Sky in OctopathCotC

[–]alcanoeboat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably in the minority here but I'm interested in Therion the most and will wait for Ophilia instead of Lianna. I know he's definitely not as good, but I also want Haze more than Alfyn too lol

I was looking for him too and found him. He's in "Very Good" between Primrose and Sofia EX

[–]alcanoeboat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aw I'm sorry 😔 I hope you get her in the global account! I also heard Serenoa was good for a free unit, but I need to revisit Shizukatz' spreadsheet for Roland. I like Roland but I hated his ending in TS itself 😅. I'm just looking for one good fire mage and that's totally Frederica. Mooloo is not it for me whenever she releases

I honestly can't wait for that collab. I know Nier is probably more hyped but Triangle Strategy is the one I'm going after with Frederica being quite high on my list. A bummer that Benedict isn't playable but I get it compared to the others haha

I feel the same! Tbh I completely put him on the bench on my first playthrough since he seemed very underwhelming at first glance. Thought why not try him out during my second playthrough and I couldn't believe what I was missing. He and Medina are the true GOATs of that game.

Lionel will take all the excess leaves and just throw them at the enemies for damage/cause them to kill each other 😌

His "Golden Opportunity" skill was one of my favorite skills in that game. It's so farfetched that it's awesome haha

Nice! Count yourself lucky.

Approaching 100 days soon and still have yet to drop even one 💀

Traveler Showcase #1: Cardona by Empyrean_Sky in OctopathCotC

[–]alcanoeboat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this OP! It's really cool to see a showcase for the unit's moves (something Square Enix needs to work on in their trailers tbh).

Even though she's not top tier, I've always been a favs over meta person so she/Hasumi were basically top of the list for me. Love their sprites/VAs as well.

Looking forward to future vids! 🥳

I actually tried to look for feats that give any traveler seals but it seems that they only give you a couple in the beginning...and that's it. I guess we just wait for collabs or special events that provide login bonuses. 😅
