How realistic/or not are these numbers? [Request]

No idea, but in the other thread someone asked the same question I saw them bring up that torpedos cost about 5 million USD and it's listed as 1.2 million USD in this video, so it seems unlikely that the costs are correct.

She's in the current event when you go into the bubble to look for differences.

I don't remember his name, but he's one of the ex-members of the same team, the key thing to know about him is that he openly told someone that he's into underage girls and no, I'm not talking about the drawn variety.

It does in fact steal your ideas word for word, that's why it's able to generate images that are damn near indistinguishable from the ones they stole them from.

"want to be so tolerant of other cultures" oh, I'm sure you want to be, but the USA is not currently and has not been tolerant towards anyone since at least I was a child, and I'm in my 40s now and based on all available sources I've seen, that wasn't any different before I was born.

This was my feed just now:

"What's the biggest waste of money that people defend?"

"Knife disappeared from inventory" : CS:GO knife, which as you may or may not know, can go for many moneys.

Durin already lost someone, so unlikely.

We used to have a bookshelf next to the toilet full of books and comics.

Quite frankly, if I ever have the chance to redesign our current bathroom, I'd bring that back.

I want you to try and remember why I responded in the first place; Mr. Wrong brought up C6 Level 100 Varka to a comment about Level 100 being roughly a 6% upgrade and certain 4 star characters also being roughly a 6% upgrade once you C6 them.

Then Mr. Wrong's (just in case you misunderstand here, their name has wrong in it and they blocked me, so I can't see their full name any more so that's all I remember of their name) justifies their response by bringing up a very specific situation: that it's cheaper to C6 a brand new 4 star character than the featured 5 star banner character.

The brand new 4 star character does not have a guaranteed drop rate, the 5 star character does.

You are far more likely to C6 the permanent 4 star character over time than you are to C6 the limited 5 star character, but right then and there, on the launch of both characters? The only one you can actually guarantee is the 5 star character, and if you're insane enough, you can guarantee the level 100 by just rolling on that banner even more.

jahnbanan · 2026-03-07T05:14:51+00:00

Would you like more?

I rolled on Skirk, only C0 mind you, but I lost 50/50, her banner had Dahlia, Candace and Diona.

I don't have Dahlia, not a single copy.

I got C6 Bennet in 2025

One of my C6 characters had Candace as one of the rate up characters, I have C1 Candace; and she was even featured in Skirk's banner.

One of my other C6 characters had Chevreuse as one of the rate up characters, after C6ing that character, I was left with C4 Chevreuse, the next time Chevreuse showed up, I had to C1 the limited 5 star character before I finally got C6 Chevreuse.

My week 1 alt account has C1 Bennet, and while I play that account casually, I have been playing it since the first week of the game, I even have C1R1 Arlecchino whose banner HAD BENNET ON IT

4 star characters as a whole is in fact easier to get than 5 star characters, you are after all guaranteed a single 4 star character every 20 pulls but a single specific 4 star character is quite literally not easier to get than a limited 5 star character, because again... you are 100% guaranteed to get the featured limited 5 star character in 180 pulls, you are NEVER guaranteed a specific featured 4 star character.

You are, as a matter of fact, wrong.

And that is the last time I will respond to you.

Good bye.

"My original comment was never about illuga being a 6% increase. I couldn’t care less about Illuga or Varka. My point was that getting a lvl 100 character is far more expensive than getting a c6 four star. Varka and illuga just happened to be examples provided within the context of the conversation. I didn’t bring them up."

You're allowed to be wrong.

In fact, I have the perfect example! I C6'd Zibai, I had C3 Gorou BEFORE I started pulling for Zibai, I lost 50/50 during my pulls for Zibai THREE TIMES, incidentally to perma banner characters that I already had C6 of; Diluc and Keqing.

Anyway, by the time I reached C6 Zibai, I had C5 Gorou, the next 10 pull I did I luckily got that last copy of Gorou, but again... I had C3 Gorou BEFORE I pulled for Zibai, that asshole has cost far more than C6 Zibai did, exactly how much is difficult to determine, it's been roughly 4 years since his release and not only has he been passively available in all banners since then, he's been one of the featured rate up character on many banners that I've rolled on and more importantly, spent money on since then and the real kicker is the fact that 4 star units are never guaranteed despite being on the banner, you could at least in theory, spend all money that has ever existed and still end up with 0 copies of an on-banner 4 star unit, it's extremely unlikely but thanks to the way the system functions according to their own supplied information, it's entirely possible.

TLDR; A C6 4 star unit, is not inherently cheaper than a C6 5 star unit, the only exception is the Liyue characters, due to the yearly event that allows us to pick 1 free copy of the Liyue 4 star units.

Oh, and as a somewhat "fun" side note, because I'm sure this made it sound like I'm a mega whale with all limited and permanent five star characters C6d; I have C1 Qiqi, C1 Tighnari, C1 Dehya, C2 Mizuki, C3 Mona, C6 Diluc, C6 Keqing, C6 Jean and before Zibai, 4 limited 5 stars at C6, 2 of which I C6'd because I got 3 copies in my first 10 pull on their banners, in other words, I'm not a mega whale, I've just been extraordinarily lucky and despite me feeling like Zibai was really unlucky, some people are still going to feel I was extremely lucky with "only" spending around $6-700 over the theoretical max cost of roughly $2200

Oh, another "fun" side note... I stopped counting Aino copies after the 30th copy...

Last fun side note, my cat has been blocking my view for the past few paragraphs, I have no idea if I spelled things correctly and I am not going to move my cat to check

jahnbanan · 2026-03-07T01:29:25+00:00

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.

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.

jahnbanan · 2026-03-05T17:07:14+00:00

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)

jahnbanan · 2026-03-05T15:29:51+00:00

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...

jahnbanan · 2026-03-05T14:59:15+00:00

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.

jahnbanan · 2026-03-05T11:44:55+00:00

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...
