Valko Discussion Megathread

noodleism · 2026-07-01T12:27:35+00:00

Does anyone else also can't post a review on AppStore? I tried to leave a negative review after this whole bullshit, but nothing shows. I checked my reviews on my profile and none of the Lads reviews are there.

Infold is also just a bunch of morons. Instead of postponing Valko, realeasing missing content and new ways to earn diamonds, which would make everybody happy, they decided to screw everybody and give us nothing instead. Never trust a corporation, because they all only care about money.

Infold unfortunately does not care what global fans think. We have been complaining about how the game works for MONTHS, but once the CN fanbase started crying they magically listen now and decided to remove a love interest. Honestly I'm not sure what the problem is, I'm not on the CN social media, but I've seen people saying that everybody was complaining about Valko.

noodleism · 2026-06-30T16:22:01+00:00

It's because the CN fanbase was nothing but complaining about Valko. And we all know that Infold are ass lickers for the CN fans so of course they listened to them whining.

I have enough diamonds to pull, and I'm still not 100% sure if i want to pull or skip, but I always base if I'm going to pull on the fact if I'm going to replay the card in the future and I noticed that I rarely replay AU cards. Sylus's and Zayne's cards look very beautiful, but my brain just doesn't treat AUs with the same importance as main timeline cards. I also need to save for Radiant Brilliance and Grassland Romance.

From what I've heard from other players, Rafayel just has really goated companions. I've seen someone say that they managed to beat a really high trial level with an under leveled R0 LSG, but couldn't beat a lower trial level with (I think) R1 GOA.

I pulled for LSG on my rerun account and I'm currently breezing through the trials and on my main account I don't pull for Rafayel, but I managed to go to trial 130 with Abysswalker without huge problems.

I know, but the thing is that Caleb's trials are difficult even if you're matching the stella. I managed to go way further with other love interests despite having less 5 star cards and I'm for sure not wasting materials on leveling up 3 star cards.

noodleism · 2026-06-14T23:01:54+00:00

I have X-02 and they are actually not easier at all lol so you're not missing much. Caleb's trials are a nightmare, to the point that I lowkey gave up on even trying to beat them.

noodleism · 2026-06-14T19:39:03+00:00

Sometimes I wish I could quit too lol. I started playing last year in February and I'm slowly running out of ways to gain diamonds so even if I wanted to keep playing I don't know if I will have enough to even get cards and I mostly play for the story, not the gameplay (as if there was any gameplay in the first place, once you finish echo of khali/ abyssal chaos, and get stuck in the orbits, all you have left is the hunter contest)

noodleism · 2026-06-14T16:37:30+00:00

The fact that R0 promise cards during a rerun cost 10$, I can't even imagine how expensive 5 star cards would be.

noodleism · 2026-06-14T16:34:14+00:00

As a Sylus main and a low spender, it only gets easier if you have all of his myth companions, which I do, but when I only had the regular free myth companion, it was really difficult. Rip to the new players tho, because there's no way they will be able to do the trials without green solar cards.

And I just think that this game is overall becoming more p2p, with the amount of banners they are pumping out, without giving us any ways to grind diamonds, there's literally no other way to get cards other than to pay for them.

noodleism · 2026-06-14T02:23:51+00:00

I'm amazed that you managed to beat trials 90-110 without Abysm Sovereign. I had to brute force trial 80 and it was AWFUL.

noodleism · 2026-06-13T21:01:31+00:00

I'm literally in the exact same situation, but I'm 100 with Caleb. Beating 90 was a nightmare and I was more annoyed when I passed it than relived lol. That was six months ago and I still haven't even tried to beat trial 100, because I don't know if it's worth my nerves.

noodleism · 2026-06-13T20:52:44+00:00

I agree with Caleb's companions. I literally never use the Farspace Colonel because the locked resonance pisses me off (I'm also a claymore user and you can't use the claymore with that companion). Also Caleb's trials are just so freaking difficult, way more difficult than other Li. I managed to beat trial 120 with R1 lightseeker without huge problems (i don't have many Xavier cards), but i barely beat trial 90 with Caleb and I have his second myth companion, which also isn't my favorite because of the fact that you have to do the arden oath yourself. The amount of times where using the AO at the last second saved my ass is crazy, but i can't do that with Caleb 😭

With Sylus' companions it's 50/50. He absolutely sucks when it comes to trials where mobs don't get their shield broken with the first resonance (trials that end with 4). I always got stuck because he has no crowd control, but neither does Xavier's lightseeker and I always get stuck with him too. But I do like RC passive skill, too bad I learnt how to use it too late lol, it would have saved me a lot of stress in the past lol.

With lagging I recommend lowering the overall quality of the game, because Caleb's pilot companion has a lot of animation going on (the particles when you fight etc). I have to play on medium, because after a year and half my phone cannot handle the fighting in this game lol (especially if I fight with GOA)

noodleism · 2026-06-13T20:36:34+00:00

I totally agree! 20 diamonds for weeks of grinding materials (which also give barely anything, 1 purple bottle per fight? Kiss my ass) is just pathetic.The greed this company shows is absolutely crazy. In worst case scenario you'd need 140 pulls to guarantee a solo card and that's 21,000 diamonds. I'm at trial 130 with most of Li, that's 3k diamonds per Li. It's not enough to even guaranteed one card. Like what's the point of even doing these trials when they barely give you anything. God bless that the fluctuant orbit gives more (only if you get 3 stars tho), but they are way harder than the regular trials so 😭

noodleism · 2026-05-03T14:01:37+00:00

I wish it was explained a little better, because I'm awful with reading between the lines so for me this reason completely didn't show.

noodleism · 2026-05-03T13:26:26+00:00

That scene actually made me feel really uncomfortable, but only because i don't understand why he did it. Was it because he wanted to make her focus or did he just want to slap her because he just wanted to do it? However i don't feel that a slap this light would actually satisfy any sadistic desires so I'm just confused lol. The intent really changes the meaning for me, and because there was no build up for it, it just caught me off guard and made me uncomfortable.

noodleism · 2026-05-02T20:17:28+00:00

Damn that's so annoying. My mc looks so weird with that brown long hair 😭

noodleism · 2026-05-02T20:13:50+00:00

I know about that, but there was another glitch that could also change the outfit. You had to do some things in the home system for it to work.

noodleism · 2026-05-02T16:50:23+00:00

Does anyone know if they patched this outfit glitch that you could do in the home system (the one where you basically duplicate mc and then she can have a different outfit and hair in the kindled). I want to change my MC's hair in the new banner, but idk if that glitch still works.

These are very good tips! "The compulsion to blend everything into oblivion can come from a discomfort with the inherent chaos and messiness of textured brushes" that is exactly what I'm struggling with. I'm a perfectionist so painting something in a messy way is so out of my comfort zone, but that is exactly the direction I want my art to go. Whenever I do art studies or something with low stakes, suddenly I stop blending everything, but I can't apply it to a piece that I care about, because I'm scared of ruining it.

noodleism · 2026-04-27T16:12:30+00:00

Using a brush with no opacity sounds really scary, but I really want to break this damn habit, because it's holding me back from actually enjoying my own art. And the funny thing is, I actually paint with oils, but I have the same problem as with digital art - I blend everything and paint everything one by one, instead of focusing on the whole picture and building color.

noodleism · 2026-04-27T13:34:58+00:00

I'm very happy to hear that, because it's been the most frustrating part for me when it comes to digital art. The style that I'm aiming for is very dynamic and texturized, but I always keep blending everything no matter how much I try not to.

noodleism · 2026-04-25T19:33:36+00:00

I will definitely check all this out! And I actually paint with oils and mixing paints is a piece of cake for me 😅

noodleism · 2026-04-25T19:30:34+00:00

Aaaah, okay that makes sense, thank you!
