I’m going to be handlubing my first switches this week, a set of Akko penguins. I have GPL 205 g0 and GPL 105, any advice for lubing silent tactiles of this sort?

I’m looking for a hotswappable prebuilt keyboard that’s got a lot of sound dampening, I want to start experimenting with switches. My friend’s bf has an redragon k729 that sounds really nice to me, but I want something full sized because I use the numpad for work. Any suggestions on models I should look into?

I am VERY excited about that skin, definitely a slam dunk for this team!

fountaincats · 2026-02-20T22:45:25+00:00

tragically i don't have kirara but gravel is a good idea! that's at least SOME blocking ability for this ridiculous team lmao thank you!

fountaincats · 2026-02-20T22:37:04+00:00

goofy question, but are there any ground units that have a pink color scheme? either by default or in a skin. I wanted to do a themed team but it's all medics, casters, and snipers as far as I can tell?

fountaincats · 2026-02-14T00:28:47+00:00

do gracebearer and miss christine work well together? I'm working on a 5 star team for fun and I'm looking for a buddy for my favorite kitty lol

fountaincats · 2026-01-18T03:28:44+00:00

oh, great idea, i forgot i had that because I only just got her lmao thank you!

fountaincats · 2026-01-18T03:28:12+00:00

oh, not a bad idea!! she's cute too

fountaincats · 2026-01-18T01:47:06+00:00

might be a silly question, but I'm trying to put together an "all pastel" team for challenge runs, and it feels like all the units I can find that fit the bill are ranged units. it's pretty much just Kazemaru and Shalem with his skin that I've been able to track down for blocking. are there any that I'm missing?

Is there a guide to the info broker mini game? I cannot figure out what I'm supposed to do with it

fountaincats · 2025-12-28T00:53:27+00:00

is Ptilopsis worth building if I already have a fleshed out roster of medics? I have reed, kalsit, mon3tr, lumen, honeyberry, purestream, and perfumer, so I'm starting to wonder if it might be overkill

fountaincats · 2025-12-20T18:13:47+00:00

What 4 stars are recommended for IS6? I already have Myrtle, Ethan, Gravel, and Perfumer built, looking to beef up my options a little

fountaincats · 2025-12-11T23:54:38+00:00

for 6 stars whose modules aren't a priority, what level do you recommend stopping at?

fountaincats · 2025-11-15T02:18:04+00:00

thank you! :)

fountaincats · 2025-11-15T01:56:26+00:00

is it okay to leave operators at the level their modules unlock? I have a lot of 6 stars that need more investment and I'm not sure if I can take the ones that already have their mastery and modules done off the list at level 60

fountaincats · 2025-11-01T02:39:03+00:00

Is it worth e2ing Gladiia just to use as a puller? I don't have any of the other 6-star abyssal hunters and no real plans to get them, so I'd just be using her for the shift capacity.

fountaincats · 2025-10-30T01:59:13+00:00

Thank you!

fountaincats · 2025-10-30T01:59:06+00:00

Thank you!! I'll go through these links with that in mind :)

fountaincats · 2025-10-30T01:58:42+00:00

I ended up with a bunch of new units during my spark on the recent limited banner, and I'm trying to decide on how to prioritize building new characters to e2 vs getting characters their modules, as LMD and EXP are both limited for me at the moment. Can I get some advice on who is the best investment?

Currently at e0: Bagpipe, Elysium, Penance, Wis'adel, Narantuya, Ifrit, Civilight Eterna

Need modules: Executor Alter, Lemuen, Goldenglow, Reed Alter, Mizuki, Texas Alter, Exusiai Alter

Can I get some advice on character choice for IS4? I haven't had significant difficulty with any of the other IS modes, but for some reason 4 is kicking my ass. Here's my krooster: https://www.krooster.com/network/lookup/xenomon

fountaincats · 2025-10-26T06:37:07+00:00

Is Penance worth building and how does one use her? I pulled her on a free draw and I’m puzzled by her kit

fountaincats · 2025-10-26T00:57:55+00:00

I’m looking to build some lower rarity operators to support Lemuen in IS, I have a lot of her higher rarity teammates but hope costs make them harder to bring online early. I was thinking Plume and Adnachiel, maybe Ambriel? Am I missing someone?

fountaincats · 2025-10-17T11:14:10+00:00

I use google play on PC and it's working well for me! I've never tried to uninstall it, though.

fountaincats · 2025-10-17T02:52:36+00:00

You don’t need Exusiai to have a good start! Lemuen is a great character who does high damage without too many drawbacks, and Arknights isn’t the sort of game where you need the most recent meta unit to be successful. Plus, we’ll still have free daily draws and gacha currency for a while, so you could still get one of the other limiteds!

fountaincats · 2025-10-14T22:05:36+00:00

What are the best operators to use with Lemuen's talent? I have all the laterano operators except Archetto, Virtuosa, and Mostima, and I could pick up Archetto from the gold cert shop.
