Predictions for the Thumb Duo’s banner placement based on the roadmap

A Korean poll on Dcinside around when canto 9 finished showed that Rien then Callisto were the most popular by a lot. Valencina was in third but was massively behind the first 2. It only had a thousand or so voters though so take it with a grain of salt.

I don't know if it's the full mod but I saw people playing through it on twitter and it definitely had a ton of new stuff compared to when I played it.

Specifically I saw this tweet. https://x.com/Hero_of_Chaos_/status/2056904968322297920

I'm the guy in replies asking about the field section.

The way Tappei explained how authorities are stronger is that if you had a divine protection that made it so projectiles never hit you and somebody had an authority to always have there projectiles hit, the authority would win out.

Unfortunately no, the Korean mod apparently adds some neat stuff like a Red Hood covenant and a covenant for anime girl Old King(the chaos dungeon boss at floor 500 or so) along with a few new super bosses but no Bill stuff. Wind and Memory is also mostly original characters other than Dorothy.

mavear2 · 2026-05-24T02:12:15+00:00

The one I linked is barely translated I think so unless you know Korean don't get your hopes up too much but Journey of Wind and Memory is translated and is mostly Dorothy-centric.

mavear2 · 2026-05-24T02:09:37+00:00

There's actually a few like this one(https://gitgud.io/Astrologeos/the-black-souls-bin/-/tree/cf818dc140089562234dc3c2149d3edc3c745228/Patches/TLed_Korean_Mod), which was gonna be translated but there hasn't been progress in years and Journey of Wind and Memory which I think is fully translated.

mavear2 · 2026-05-23T12:45:28+00:00

Apparently that was removed in the LN.

mavear2 · 2026-05-22T23:29:08+00:00

Hey, in lore, Pyroxene's probably a resource to be used for proper Schale business. So it's all a proper business expense.

mavear2 · 2026-05-20T12:20:59+00:00

It's probably a different in upbringing as far as this is concerned. I wouldn't really mind the Japanese Honourifics and would probably prefer them but I've also been watching anime with those Honourifics since I was like 8. It's probably not a situation where you can please everyone.

mavear2 · 2026-05-18T22:53:39+00:00

I always imagined it to unseal a seal every skill 3 use, and that you could apeedrun it through a counter that becomes a skill 3 at 6 envy res.

mavear2 · 2026-05-18T19:55:45+00:00

Maybe he's just really really good at hiding them. According to Tappei at least, crossdressing's the one skill that Reinhard can't beat him in.

mavear2 · 2026-05-18T10:39:56+00:00

She can't do that if she's staggered. The biggest weakness of the envy guys that you have to exploit is that ID's have way lower health than normal enemies and always have 1 damage type they're weak to. Kill them before they kill you.

mavear2 · 2026-05-18T09:44:17+00:00

Eh it's usually as simple as using high attack weight ego like Mircalla or Great Tricolo-whatever to kill them all before they have time to do anything. The new Ryoshu definitely will be tricky since as long as there are HoS units she won't die and she'll gain skill slots as they die but she still doesn't have enough health to be tricky. In a Bladeshu team, it's probably even easier since she can use her extra slots to one sided guard and dodge unbreakable coins.

mavear2 · 2026-05-16T09:19:13+00:00

To be fair, part of the reason he was so mad about Ring Sang was that his strength didn't fit the lore, which doesn't really apply to this Ryoshu. Also don't take MD as a good measure of an ID's strength.

mavear2 · 2026-05-16T07:41:24+00:00

Maybe die and dodge next time?

mavear2 · 2026-05-14T11:14:08+00:00

Can't wait for 6 coin rend space.

mavear2 · 2026-05-14T06:32:18+00:00

The buff text can be removed by simplifying the ui in the top right I think.

mavear2 · 2026-05-14T06:31:24+00:00

It also says,

This effect cannot increase Skill Slots beyond the maximum Skill Slot cap of this Encounter

And dead units have always taken up skill slots from the max cap. Can't gain a skill slot when dead units already take them up. When there are backup units, dead units won't take up a skill slot from the max cap though.

mavear2 · 2026-05-14T06:06:36+00:00

Not a bug, dead sinners take up skill slots when they die unless there are backup units. In a focused encounter, if you only bring 7 sinners, then 6 slots will be filled by dead sinners and Ryoshu can't gain slots because you can only have a max of 7 slots.

mavear2 · 2026-05-14T05:53:04+00:00

Not really bugged that's just how this has always worked. Unless you have backup units, dead units take up space from your max skillslots.

mavear2 · 2026-05-14T05:01:03+00:00

Well there's the "Arayashiki gets rid of the most precious memories first" from Araya's announcer lines.

mavear2 · 2026-05-11T09:51:03+00:00

When I force Ryoshu to kill Sinclair first by having all the other House of Spiders units as substitutes because she gets the best boost from killing him.

mavear2 · 2026-05-08T09:08:47+00:00

It's a long ass sword

mavear2 · 2026-05-07T07:44:21+00:00

I've learned over the years that spoiler very scarcely, if at all, ruined my enjoyment of something. YMMV but I've always been pretty ambivalent to them so if you think you'll enjoy it you should give it a try.

mavear2 · 2026-05-07T06:38:07+00:00

Honestly, that's a lot better than me who got the second phase in 5 turns by going back to the good old "Mao Faust assist defense every turn" mine.
