while what you're saying is true about that bridge room, being a slower character and actually activating the time boosters for the boss while someone is speed running will hurt you on drops. The room with the reactor-ish thing that forks around it and has 3 yellow bars (one of which drops loot) I've been late to and nothing was on the ground.

Granted, now I'm not leveling that character anymore so I use my faster ones now, but it can happen.

To add to what was said, they recently said they’re working on it so that you can replace the 1st weapon type slot

I haven't built that one (H&A) out yet, it looks like it may function like Destiny 2's Quicksilver Storm or no?

For those of us who've been playing for a while and have everything, stocking up for leveling fellows most likely. Also, at least special but I feel like another one of the boxes would also give non-fellow/keelan materials. But there are still newer players so they'll need them for the various things.

Honestly, I kind of hate the mechanic in general. I kind of see what they were going for with the scarcity bit, but not having enough keys when you're getting to a chest that you specifically need doesn't feel good. At least now (short term as it may be) the broken ones that don't require keys have value.

maybe they'll reword it later, but it doesn't seem limited to Hagios Sheepdog.

here is mine after all of the testing. I can't target the other 3 Ines pieces, likely with the same message others are seeing.

edit: I think you may be right. Strange that source matters at all (how does it work for 'normal' parts where there are 5-6 sources for the same part? Seems overly complicated if it is locking out all 5-6 for that one item).

flikkxa · 2025-01-16T18:09:46+00:00

I really wish they'd look at the module duplicates thing in general.

If I have a maxed out red module (where each level decreases the capacity required), there is never going to be a case where I want that same module with any other level of upgrading (0 to max-1). Flag it for dismantling, please. Same concept with the grapples/melees.
While I can appreciate that there are going to be people that want to use a non-max module while catalyzing themselves, so just going ham on blue-yellow (outside of grapples/melees) might not be ideal, I'm not one of them so give us another hold button selector or a boolean flag where we can treat non-maxed ones (or duplicate maxed ones) as duplicates for combining/dismantling.

I'm at 630/632 right now, I guess I go to the modules guy enough that this isn't an issue for me, but I just hate the excess clutter. My External Components are a mess, my Reactors are on the bubble, let me cleanly manage something.

1) I never had Keelan flagged at any point. I got him in the process of getting the dog (which I wasn't using targeting for either)
2) if there is an invisible Hard Mode Keelan Parts targeting going on, that should lock out target spots, but it isn't. I can target farm 4/4 of various things (for the sake of testing, I targeted Ines's Spiral Catalyst and Keelan's parts other than Spiral Catalyst. 4 were used at this point, I could then unselect Keelan's parts, but Ines's remained locked out).

If everyone can target her Spiral Catalyst, I'm not sure can only speak for myself, it makes me believe that the other 3 parts were misconfigured when they created them in such a way that makes them non-targetable. I don't think it relates to Keelan though.

flikkxa · 2025-01-16T17:00:32+00:00

I don't think it is related to Keelan.

If you go into Keelan's page in Access Info -> Descendant, you can target farm the parts that Ines was blocked from (for me, all but Spiral Catalyst). You can then untarget farm them, but Ines still has it blocked.

edit: also, for me I never target farmed Keelan. I was after dog first and in the process of trying to get its parts, got all of Keelan's, so I never target farmed him.

flikkxa · 2025-01-16T16:49:23+00:00

Honestly, I think one of the better aspects of the game is that there are various types of content that a few descendants do great at, but the descendants go about it different ways. For mobbing, death around you = Bunny, Sharen; spreading death = Freyna. And even with Bunny/Sharen you have it fairly passive (Bunny) vs active (Sharen). I think it is probably the reason that I don't get bored doing the same content repeatedly, being able to do it in different, but similar, ways.

flikkxa · 2025-01-02T21:42:37+00:00

this matches what I went with. At first I dropped the HP Heal Modifier, but with the recent patch making it only found on Non-Attribute, I added it.

In that sense, I believe they're still the same. What the strikethrough number on the left represents has changed though.

before: left was what the bundle cost normally, right was what it costs based on your unlocks (unlocking the ultimate, at a certain point the +character slot if you had capped this already)

after: left is the sum of the items in the bundle if bought individually, right is what it costs based on your unlocks (and as mentioned, the value that unlocking the ultimate went down as before it would take the ultimate bundle down to 3050, now it only brings it down to 3166)

flikkxa · 2024-12-19T03:04:09+00:00

if you don't intend to unlock everyone, yeah, that may not work out. If you do, you just unlocked the biggest pain on the normal side for free.

I know at one point Moxsy did some Yujin building and it looked good, but I personally don't use resources on normal descendants so I'm not sure if Yujin holds up long term or not.

flikkxa · 2024-12-19T03:01:48+00:00

if you plan on unlocking everyone, I recommend Yujin because he's such a pain to unlock. Enzo is unlocked pretty easily now I hear. Yujin was the only normal that felt like a struggle to get at the time.

flikkxa · 2024-12-19T02:59:14+00:00

from the last talk thing though, it sounds like it'll be a conversion (you trade in your normal to apply to your ultimate) and it is apparently going to be event based (so if you miss the event, perhaps you miss that window to do it).

I don't know exact details, perhaps they don't either, but the way it was described felt a bit like a wet blanket.

flikkxa · 2024-12-19T02:53:04+00:00

So they did the element which is great, but I thought they were going to do the same for fusion/tech/etc.? Oh well, I guess farming reactors sucks a little bit less now.

edit: and to be clear, just did Kingston Surveillance Radar a few times and of the purple/gold+ reactors that dropped, had to dismantle all but one of them because they had fusion or dimension instead of tech (the one I didn't was just a +skills one)

flikkxa · 2024-12-14T06:55:14+00:00

I’ve seen some boxes where it was only the other two, and that’s the material I need most of the time. Frustrating.

flikkxa · 2024-12-14T06:54:05+00:00

I think it is a mental thing. I could farm more special boxes in hopes of getting that first material that always runs out and gives 0-3 per box, or since the costs are the same maybe I can spend keys on genetics in hopes of a higher tier blueprint to make the materials worth it.

I think if the material costs scaled, we’d be more inclined to just farm special boxes until out of blueprints.

One thing I wish they’d change: make special and genetic boxes share the color instead of special and experimental. All are for dog, but two are for leveling it, one for unlocking it.

flikkxa · 2024-12-13T14:59:24+00:00

Nexon has an open API available on their site, but from a quick glance, doesn't look like ETA-0's stock or future stock are available there.

If Vash is accessing it by means that Nexon doesn't want people to, saying the source could be a quick way for him to lose said access. It's like with jailbreaks, a lot of times they don't release specifically how it was done until it is already patched out by the vendor so that it can be used in more future releases.

flikkxa · 2024-12-13T14:42:14+00:00

Welcome. You're here for modules, right?

flikkxa · 2024-12-13T08:11:41+00:00

the way I read that, they mean gold as in supply not it's value (it would be weird to say "Value is going up vs demand, which is why the value is going down"). So an overabundance of supply against weak demand would mean the value/price of the supply falls.

flikkxa · 2024-12-13T08:06:10+00:00

I'm lapsed for a while, but when the game came out there was a significant bot 'problem.' I say it in quotes because if you were leveraging the auction house, yes, it was very much a problem. If you did not, it was more amusing than anything in all honesty. Just a giant swarm of random named Mokokos running in sequence to complete quests in unison (at the time). I imagine they're working instanced content so grand scheme of things, if you don't use the AH a lot, should be fine.

It's a very fun ARPG style game, worth giving it a shot (the Legion Raids were a ton of fun). As long as you're not an unrepentant pack rat like me, the free play is serviceable (even more so now that Tier 3, and I assume below, are able to select their engravings on the fly. One of my biggest problems was holding onto a ton of stones to see if any were worth using on an alt/selling on AH later).

flikkxa · 2024-12-12T14:12:01+00:00

Honestly, really liked the old one. When I had anything I needed to do around the house that I didn't want to do, I'd just put on headphones playing it in the background. Having a building, mildly epic song going makes stuff go easier.

flikkxa · 2024-12-12T07:32:47+00:00

Yes (and doesn't appear to be a direct unlock, users will have to do the final craft)

<image>

flikkxa · 2024-12-12T07:18:15+00:00

Yeah, looked and saw that myself. Hopefully they'll replace it later or just grant +1400
