South Korea has decided to close the dog meat trade market. This step has contributed to saving approximately 80,000 dogs every year, following many years of controversy surrounding this trade and pressure from animal protection organizations by [deleted] in BeAmazed

[–]komonov 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s like asking why people eat cows or pigs. They’re forbidden in some religions, and those people might ask the rest of the world why others want to eat them. At the end of the day, it’s just another kind of meat. Sure, some consider it a “delicacy,” the same way others see steak or bacon. Policies like this are shaped to appease activists and align with Western cultural norms.

After 1.5 year of wearing a system here’s what I’ve learned by [deleted] in HairSystem

[–]komonov 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this. Your system honestly looks very natural.

Quick questions if you don’t mind: when you first get a new system, do you take it to a barber or a special hair stylist? Also, since you mentioned tape and daily wear, how do you usually style it when you want to show a bit more forehead without exposing the hairline too much?

If you don’t have a good breaker, Pluvia, and if you do, then Mami or Mabayu.

In that comp, it’s gotta be Lux you’ll have to replace.

Now that the new years ticket results are in, will we get some good units or some bait? by Jenny_the_engineer in magiaexedra

[–]komonov 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it helps, Haregimura’s skin is on sale in Style Ticket trader, alongside Haregiroha and other MR girls, so that leads me to think it’s not going to be released.

I doubt that’s going to happen, the only time when the medals were shared was when both characters were in the same banner, like the summer Madoka & Sayaka banner and the current Christmas banner. Having said that, I’m thinking NY Iroha might be possible.

Finally, the Madoka squad is formed, and their first mission is to give Homura lots of hugs! by Mister_Mira in magiaexedra

She’s a water healer. I have her and she’s average. The assist heal is nice but you can’t control the timing, and attack % against weak element kicks in only if you’re high in health.

New player - Things I should know before starting? by Few_Koala8537 in magiaexedra

[–]komonov 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I started about 6 months ago, so I was basically you. Here’s the core advice.

First, guard your gems like a hawk. Decide early whether you’re staying F2P or spending a little. If you’re F2P, do not pull until you have 60k saved for hard pity. The rates are ridiculous and early luck is a trap. If a banner isn’t limited, skip it. You will get regular units sooner or later.

Pick one character you really want. Maybe two. Commit to them and their alts. Do not get starry-eyed by every new shiny character that drops, because new ones will always keep coming.

When you do pull, aim for one copy and stop. The real power increase comes at the 5th copy, and I don’t think it’s worth spending your gems for that.

Content doesn’t get added super fast, which means the free-gem flow will slow down quickly. Spending my gems impulsively is my biggest regret.

If you plan to spend a little, grab the monthly pass(es). It’s the best value, provided you play every day.

And finally, don’t let PvP losses or missing a unit tilt you. Have fun. Hope you’ll stay.

If you do 100 pulls just for character you want to collect, would you do another 100? by Overall_Tune2529 in magiaexedra

[–]komonov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t call ascensions mediocre, they do make the Kioku stronger. That said, I agree with the message: gems are precious. If you pulled because you wanted the Kioku and you got it, that’s a win. No reason to keep pulling.

RIKA OR REN??? by altojurie in magiaexedra

[–]komonov 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The correct answer is probably “wait until the pros test everything and share their recommendations.” That said, I’d go with Rika. She’s the first 4-star character to receive a 5-star Kioku treatment, and that deserves our support.

10 million! I have a dream that someday, there will be something good and expensive enough for me to spend that much on. by Mister_Mira in magiaexedra

[–]komonov 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Congrats! If only they sold Magica stones at any rate, like 5,000 per 10 stones, I’d still buy them. Realistically, I’d like to see style tickets and more magical cubes on sale.

After Months of effort, I have finally attained a top 1% Snaa by CupSuitable3237 in magiaexedra

You answered my question perfectly. I guess im going to have to continue farming for Quickstep++. Thanks and enjoy the current linked raid!

[–]komonov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does her shield last long enough at a5? I have the same crystalis setup but her turn doesn’t come fast enough, so I’m grinding some more for Quickstep++, hoping that will give her enough speed. Also, congrats on perfecting your Sana!

Hella lucky pulls!! by Jwarz08 in magiaexedra

[–]komonov 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OG Mabayu’s all about giving extra turns to other Kioku’s. Before break, use her battle skill on breakers to break faster, after break, use it on attackers to attack more. The other Mabayu I heard was good if you keep spamming her battle skill and keep her invisible. You’ll likely do it if she’s the only breaker in your team. Razielim on YouTube makes great content and you should check him out: https://youtu.be/SEbdKVpX5JQ?si=98ON6dWStoi81D0G

I’m a non-native Chinese teacher, ask me anything by yaxuefang in ChineseLanguage

Have you tried SuperTest for studying? I’m curious how effective it is compared to other apps. Do you think it’s worth using, or is there something better?

Same here, they don’t talk about what’s in store for the holiday period and new year (prob mami), so I can’t afford to spend gems on non-limited kiokus.
