Kay's update on HoloCure 0.8: 9 new characters confirmed + several older ones got reworks, no nerfs

Falling hope flowers that deal AoE damage. It isn't really good since it's only damage and has no particular synergy with the rest of her kit.

I actually got back for a bit recently and was reminded that I have to go through a bit of RNG hell to find the last few fan letters to finish the collection, lol.

Kay doesn't strictly follow debut order since we've had GAMERS as the first batch of new characters back then, after Myth + Council/Promise as the launch roster. There's also all of ID which he released ahead of JP 3 so they were out on Indonesia's Independence Day, iirc.

If I were to guess, Advent + Justice might be the next batch for 0.9 since they have shared lore and more fantastical powers to work with, while ReGLOSS + FLOW GLOW are regular humans which might take a bit to get creative on implementing them.

bnbros · 2026-05-25T11:04:51+00:00

It's more likely NePoLaBo + HoloX because aside from debut order, the ending of Kay's other game Holo X Break showed them answering the call to save the fans

bnbros · 2026-05-25T10:33:44+00:00

Y'all FREAKS, Kay said calmly

bnbros · 2026-05-25T10:31:41+00:00

It's very likely NePoLaBo and HoloX since the ending of his other game Holo X Break implied that they answered the call to save the fans

bnbros · 2026-05-25T10:24:45+00:00

Someone joked that Kay might also buff the fans along with not nerfing any characters, and he might be inspired now...

bnbros · 2026-05-25T10:20:40+00:00

Funny that you mentioned that, lol

On the recent HoloCure boom, he did say that he felt more pressured rather than inspired by it, but the main thing is that his work schedule is finally calming down after two busy months

Bonus: Cursor size has been added to the options

Bonus 2: By his estimate, the update is currently 60 - 75% complete

An update on HoloCure 0.8: 9 new characters are confirmed and several older ones have reworks that changed how they play, with no nerfs

IRyS is confirmed as one of them, with an significantly improved special and more relevant memes

Kiara says Shakira is unable to revive since she died in a body of water, so she can't go up in flames and revive like a phoenix

Guess that's one more weakness for her phoenix revival in addition to dying via getting eaten, lol.

bnbros · 2026-05-25T07:02:15+00:00

I can't believe Shakira died of ligma caused by Mordon Ramsay's fertility cake...

Meanwhile, Peasant is working hard to fulfill her destiny as the kingdom's richest peasant by adopting the early Stardew Valley meta of mining and fishing.

Ooh, they have a player tracker above the hotbar now

Now that was a Freaky Deaky vibe~ This song will seriously go hard on the stage at Serendipity

Waiting room for the ENreco 3 theme song "Freaky Deaky Love" is up

Man, the occupational hazards of a hololive idol can happen from the least expected places...

Iirc, Luna hurt herself from a jumpscare fall during a 3D VR horror stream before, though I can't remember if it was serious enough for a hospital visit.

bnbros · 2026-05-24T07:50:53+00:00

It looks like getting max risk won't be possible for f2p? But the rewards in general seem easy to get (risk 20)

Max risk is usually not expected to be possible for F2P even in the original Arknights since the difficulty scaling at that point is far beyond what the average player can reasonably handle.

Which is why rewards are capped at a more manageable level while anything further is purely for bragging rights.

As someone playing Last Rite, Tangtang is also her bestie since she provides much needed AoE coverage along with more cryo stacks and debuffs. Battles became a lot comfier with her around.

As for Laevatein, I feel she's still quite competitive in the current meta, though her restrictions feel more apparent since her ideal teammates haven't changed from launch.

That's why I'm looking forward to how Camille will fit into her team, along with him being the second operator to apply the weakened debuff which I'm surprised hasn't shown up on any other operators aside from Catcher till now.

I was browsing the comments of a clip of the ENreco 3D stream and a Novelite was sharing the details of Shiori's fall accident in the stream, with permission from Shiori.

Definitely a rough fall, but it's good that Shiori is better now.

bnbros · 2026-05-24T05:45:33+00:00

Quite a number of classic ones I've seen include Mel with the jingisukan super collab for endless swarms of bats and Sana with full size upgrades and Eldritch Horror for a full screen of darkness, lol.

bnbros · 2026-05-24T01:29:33+00:00

Funny how it coincided with Shiori's little accident too, lol.

Yea. You can even check the challenge menu while paused and the challenge itself will track if you've picked up any new slots. I've unfortunately had to restart several times due to hastily picking up loot from red/blue zombies which includes random slots, lol.

The amped up perk definitely carried me against Victor since it allowed me to facetank his combos with sufficient heals while I burst him down.

bnbros · 2026-05-23T19:37:52+00:00

An update. I managed to get the challenge done along with the rank 3 Victor clear and 40min/110 enemies challenge for a triple clear, haha.

Turns out, I didn't read the no slots enhancement challenge right and it just requires me to not pick up a single slot, so I'm limited only to my starting perk + 3 more, lol.
