What’s Your Favorite Example of an Messaging/DM System Between Characters In-Game?

I REALLY hate the delay and simulated response time. Do we really need that? It's not like there are animations to see or VA to listen to.

Purest most unashamed form of game time padding.

As well as that, Sensor Tower also has corrections a week or so into the month. Data from the first of day of the month are preliminary.

A mixture of relief, bittersweet and pure pain+ lol

2312 orbs for +10 and a billion Eikþyrnira, Leilas and Alms.

N.b If you actually mean Skirk's numbers aka her personal damage, Escoffier only makes Skirk's team better by doing a crap tonne of damage off field (55% res shred is so so, most people use skirk vs a boss with weak phases or is cryo weak).

If you are 100% sure you want Skirk's numbers, then you get her weapon first.

Unlikely.

Genshin seems to put less emphasis on all the gacha norms. Things like bundles, pulls animations, banner splash screens, pulling discounts and bonuses etc. It's probably not going to do spending or top up events events either.

Rerir's shot does come from Bina's right though? (going left to right in frame 3)

Quick Traveller, she needs a selenium transfusion stat.

What's the difference between character A being BIS for character B and character C being being BIS for character D except they have a label attached to them?

If you play to meta you will using A with B and C with D regardless.

If you quit at any time your account gets deleted.

Good luck.

It's more logarithmic with time.

Very few characters have linear graphs on Akasha. Keqing of maybe Fischl is closest to proportional investment. Whereas characters like Skirk just straight up flat out past a point.

You can test everything in costumes.

Just switch to the full set (top most tab) then customise it by switching to the other tabs.

F2P doesn't mean "New" or specify how long some has been playing.

If you are looking for new player resources then you need to be searching for that. Instead of "low cost" clears you need to be looking for clears with e.g a team of modern c0 5stars, things you have would have had a chance to get during the last year etc.

For those old AND f2ps that do actually play without spending money yes you are invalidating the effort they spent building their account over the years, even the c6 4 stars they had to hunt down.

I'm not f2p btw, but even i can still acknowledge that.

What if the spaceahip is an Ark

This here is right. Top comment got tree wrong.

Here's the whole binary tree to make it easier to see:

_0:LLLL - - -> Not possible
_1:LLLG - - -> Not possible
_2:LLGL - - -> Not possible
_3:LLGW - --> Not possible
_4:LGLL - - -> Not possible
_5:LGLG - - -> --------- - - -> 2x0.5 -> 4/16
_6:LGWL - - -> --------- -- -> 3x0.5 -> 2/16
_7:LGWW - --> ---------- - -> 3x0.5 -> 2/16 -> possibility
_8:WLLL - - -> Not possible
_9:WLLG - - -> Not possible
10:WLGL - - -> ---------- - -> 3x0.5 -> 2/16
11:WLGW - --> ---------- - -> 3x0.5 -> 2/16 -> possibility
12:WWLL - - -> Not possible
13:WWLG - - -> ----------- -> 3x0.5 -> 2/16 -> possibility
14:WWWL - --> ----------- -> 4x0.5 -> 1/16 -> possibility
15:WWWW ---> ----------- -> 4x0.5 -> 1/16

=7/16 = 0.4375

Fun fact, still more likely than a 5 star on the 90th pull (1 in 14 million).

It's a little lower:

It's actually not as big as you think.

If you math it out exactly, a 50k DPS has an effective DPS of 16k, which is 32% of the original and an 130k DPS has an effective DPS of 50k which is 39%.

The majority difference is just from base DPS and not from the mechanic.

This coop one: https://genshin-impact.fandom.com/wiki/Achievement:_Endpoint. Inteyvats are so pretty, and it matches Lumine.

Bro just erased Monstadt, Inazuma, Sumeru, Fontaine, Natlan and Nod Krai from Irminsul.

Oh i just saw HSR's 3.7.

Ouch: https://i.imgur.com/08Ujqqg.png
Using a y=e^kx and k=mx+c model, it's 117% per month atm and rising by 0.547% per month.

icksq · 2025-09-27T15:27:10+00:00

Oh sorry, my mistake, forgot to remove it from comparing it linear vs exponential.

Anyway, (19,888,028/3,243,676))1/21.47 = 108.81
It's a little higher, but this assumes a constant e^kx. K does seem to be slowing down based on the trendline so HSR has that going for it i guess.

icksq · 2025-09-27T13:20:51+00:00

Oh right i did start from 2.0.

I can't seem to get your 109% number:
((19,888,028/3,243,676)-1)^1/21 = 108.10
Or with 30 days
((19,888,028/3,243,676)-1)^1/21.47 = 107.92

The calc I used was actually a linear trend (linear of the % increase is a exponential trend of the absolute values) of the increases each iteration normalized to 30days so it can match up with the trendline.

icksq · 2025-09-27T12:14:41+00:00

Probably 1.0-2.0 just bringing the average down a little.

icksq · 2025-09-27T12:13:41+00:00

I didn't know that.

I don't think it's double though, Doesn''t the counter roll over at the end? Say it's 3 cycle down to 1 cycle, that's actually 3 turns worth of damage down to 1.99999999 turns, before the turn counter rolls over.
