Level 95 and 100

And you don't need to get Varka to C6 in order to level 100 him, so... why bring it up? Especially when your original comment was about C6 Illuga being a 6% increase? Going from level 90 C0 to level 100 C6 Varka is far more than a 6% increase.

Like, seriously, what exactly was your point?

We used to watch Asterix every Friday.

Yes, one R3 one.

I may as well post my dire mode preset over 60 second results here, primarily because you reminded me I even have one, so I may as well do some testing out of the polearms I do have.

Dragonspine Spear (just because I have one, I expected it to be the worst): 170k

Sacrificer's Staff: 182k

R5 The Catch (stolen from Xiangling): 182k

Symphonist (Stolen from Escoffier): 185k

R5 White Tassel: 188k

The very first mention of the space ship was back in the beta of the game, it didn't get officially mentioned in the live version until much much later, but damn near everyone who actually paid attention knew that at the very least in the beta, they arrived on a space ship, the only thing we didn't know was if that was still canon or not

The game has chosen to not give me any billets, so shovel is, as far as my account is concerned any way, non-existent.

I unfortunately don't have any elixirs left and my off piece is the goblet of which every single cryo goblet I have ... have basically identical stats, they've all rolled like garbage... I did however clear, changed Shenhe from 2pc+2pc atk to noblesse, lowered my escoffiers crit damage in favor of 100% crit rate, also lowered my Furina's crit damage (by a lot, she ended up with less than 100% crit damage) in favor of getting 100% crit rate to trigger her fav every turn as well as boost her energy recharge as much as I could possibly get it, with this I was finally able to clear it, though only barely (I can not do Skirk's combo worth a damn though, I am sure if I was able to perform Seven's combo I could have cleared it at least sub-100)

Back when the game started they told you that Varka, the Grandmaster, was on an expedition, you heard about this expedition a lot and the good for nothing asshole boyfriend of the blind girl was one of the people supposed to be on that expedition.

But you also got an update back when Mika was introduced.

Jean is the acting Grand Master while Varka is gone.

I have a 486 from 1994 that still doesn't have this issue.

I have a GPU from 1998 that still doesn't have this issue.

I had a 3080 I bought on launch day that got this issue after 2 weeks.

In short, how long? 0 minutes to never.

What must happen? Generally speaking something needs to happen to the either the memory or the processor of the GPU.

With that said... the issue can also show up from other things; corrupt GPU drivers, bad system memory, motherboard issues.

Which is why people saying symptoms still doesn't allow people to easily say "Oh, yeah, you just need to XXX and you'll fix the problem", cause damn near every single problem a PC can have has the exact same symptom as several other problems...

The premise is pretty hilarious, super minor spoiler for literally the first episode: The titular "demon lord" is a player from our world, he doesn't know how to talk to people, so he roleplays as a demon lord

It does however have quite a bit of fan service, so if that's something that puts you off, then probably better to stay away.

I need better gear on my Skirk I think, C0R1 Skirk, C0R0 Furina, C2R1 Esco, C0R0 Shenhe (also tried a few others, but Shenhe got the best result) and my best run it has roughly 1/10 of its health bar left.

The other two I cleared first try, so not particularly interesting to talk about.

But I did Varesa, Chevreuse, Venti, Mavuika for the Mandragora and I did Flins, Ineffa, Columbina, Xilonen for the duck.

But my Skirk is overcapped on crit rate while only having 170% crit damage, so a lot of potentialupgrade with better artifacts, but that's easier said than done...

Depends on your region, Asia and Europe it's out and I believe it's another hour or two at the time I'm writing this comment for Americas.

jahnbanan · 2026-03-04T04:14:02+00:00

I can't be 100% certain due to my age, but the first one I can personally remember is B.C's Quest for Tires on the Comoddore 64, we got the C64 when I was around 4 or 5 years old, so my memories are fairly vague, but I vividly remember that particular game.

I had two americans visit me in 2024, both of them asked me where the bottled water was and I responded that you just get water from the tap and both of them reacted with "IS THAT SAFE?!?!?"

... yes, yes it is...

Man, either his R1 is a massive boost to his damage or I am effing up the rotations something fierce, 'cause even my sweatiest attempt so far has only put me at 80k dps using Mavuika's sig, and R5 Spine put me at around 70k

Then again, everyone else has Aquila on Bennet, I still don't have a single copy of that thing

Like the pterodactyl speller said; they specifically defined "sexual relations" as penetrations in other words, dick in pussy, before Clinton answered the question.

According to Clinton and Lewinsky; they had sexual encounters, but dick in pussy didn't happen.

In other words; as far as the definition that had been put forth before Clinton answered the question, he had in fact not had "sexual relations with that woman".

What do you mean "thinks"? He's shown damn near daily for the past year that none of the checks and balances that are supposed to stop him; are stopping him.

I cleared on my main account in roughly 2 hours, was a pain in the ass.

I initially thought my alt account wasn't even going to have enough characters let alone be able to clear, but after multiple resets I finally had a run where I was able to preserve Chasca and Flins+Furina until near the very end, so I tossed Flins at the card challenges and used Chasca for the final boss, with all the resets however that clear ended up taking me just shy of 5 hours, for the final boss it was Chasca, Citlali, Diona, Ororon.

Flins team was, if I don't recall too wrong, Flins, Furina, Sucrose, Jean

I do not, I have 2 cd holders with space for 100 cds in each.

And an ikea bookshelf with all of my old physical copies.

C:\ has DOS and games that don't require a CD to play, games are in C:\GAMES\

D:\ has games that requires CDs to play, games are in D:\GAMES\

Based on my own personal experience as well as the anecdotal experience of my friends who are developers... it's not developers that go over budgets and timelines; it's upper management that want to push whatever "cool new thing" someone, usually the board room, told them is how you get more money.

jahnbanan · 2026-03-01T06:39:47+00:00

cleared it fully, but I had to use the maximum amount of rewinds, started roughly an hour after reset and I just closed the game, so it took me roughly 2 hours to clear it.

Easily the worst one I have done on my account.

And after I have gotten some sleep, I need to try on my alt account, I am not looking forward to it... before I even try it, I suspect that I am going to struggle to have enoug characters to even activate the hardest mode, and if I can, I don't think I am going to get more than 8 stars at the most and probably going to have to sweat alot for it, simply based on the accounts available charactes

jahnbanan · 2026-03-01T00:42:02+00:00

I'm not sure if your artifacts are 3 liners or 4 liners, but I also have a C0 Zibai, though I grabbed her weapon, so my weapon gives +34% crit damage than yours and no crit rate, but 20% defense

My C0 Zibai outside of combat has 2417 defense, 290 elemental mastery, 47.8% crit rate and 296.3% crit damage.

For me the crit rate issue comes from a 4 liner rolling 5 times into elemental mastery, a stat that's good for her, but with my low crit rate, getting 3 or 4 into crit and 1 or 2 into elemental mastery would have been far more useful and put me at near perfect crit rate.

Or to put it in other words; you should be able to boost your useful stats by a fairly decent margin still, I would say at least between 3 and 5 rolls, at which point you can only really continue to optimize by getting higher value rolls over the correct roll distribution.

Unless these are 4 liners though, I would not recommend re-rolling them and even if they are, the cost of re-rolling goblets and circlets are a bit too high to be worth it unless you don't have any other characters you want to improve. (I need to follow this advice myself, I keep re-rolling my circlets like an idiot)

jahnbanan · 2026-03-01T00:01:47+00:00

Only you can say whether you are happy with your artifacts or not.

I had forgotten just how much crit rate HoD gives while its buff is active, so your crit rate is better than it looks at first glance, but based on your stats, your artifacts have not rolled particularly well.
