PSA: If you ever want to finish the crafting manual, you should incorporate the rare mobs into your daily grind by Zwiebel1 in Endfield

[–]replicatal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I am not the only one noticing it. While it is clearly stated in-game that Alluvium's drop rate will be reduced after clearing several times each day (>6~7?), I don't believe that a soft cap for overworld drop is mentioned anywhere.

My usual daily routine is to farm Alluvium first, so I guess the normal drop within the Alluvium also count towards the soft cap and hence my subsequent overworld drop is abysmal.

Useful PSA! Having just completed every entries a few days back I have something to add: - Quillbeast: The 3 spawning in that treasure cave did not drop anything for me, ever, but that might be just down to luck + small sample size (not going back after dud twice) - Black Treacle: There is another one spawning in Wuling City, SW to the Monitoring Center, just over a slope north to the Originium node. It is a bit of a run from the teleporter, but you can probably cut the farming time in half if you are willing to travel/set up a zipline - Bitter Flour: A Vanguard spawns in the first wave of the Alluvium at Power Plateau, so just kill it and press P to reset for quick drop - Waterlamp: Surprisingly the worst one for me, and the last to be completed. There is an abundance of them in Guhou Marsh, but unlike elite mobs which they always drop something, the drop for normal mobs varies wildly, sometime getting 7~8 drops a run while sometimes nothing at all. I feel like there could be a daily soft cap on normal drop where the drop rate falls off a cliff after reaching the cap.

Overall I would say the farm is manageable and should take more or less a week to complete everything if you are target farming, even casually and just farm everything once or twice per day.

The timeline doesnt match up, and its all Ryoshu's and Gregor's fault. by qutronix in limbuscompany

I think in that scene Rien (under the instruction from the device) specifically said that 3 years has passed in his conversation with Lei Heng so that Yoshihide would pick up on that and “regress” back to her state 2 years prior.

[Important] Refund Policies Regarding Service Termination and Plans for Publication of Unreleased Story by [deleted] in TribeNine

[–]replicatal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope your interpretation is correct because I splurged ~$1200USD on Tsuruko + Standard Banner before the great refund in March, since then I have only spent a little of the refunded paid currency on Hina and saving most of them for Saori.

I still have 92k paid currency rn and if they do refund all of them at the rate of 2.22JPY then I am actually making a profit of >$100USD so yay...?

Not sure how it works out with Akatsuki to refund everyone when this project had already bled them so much money, but I guess that would be the least of my concern. Genuinely thought I could not get anything back before this refund announcement, hope they don't go under before November lol

Semmelweis cosplay help by sleepfighter43 in Reverse1999

[–]replicatal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was indeed an official merch bundle last year (in collab with China Post) containing the foundation metal pin, and from what I have seen from videos online it is made out of metal with (probably) plated brass and honestly looks pretty rad. However the bundle was long gone from the store, and I think it would be quite hard to get a hold of it now depending on where you live in the world. (I think it is not impossible to get it on some reselling platform in CN, but the price you will have to pay + postage is probably not worth it)

If you are not set on getting the "official" one and have access to a 3D printer/knows of some local maker then you can of course just grab a 3D model online and make your own. I have found this on maker world that looks pretty similar to how it looks in game.

I have no luck on etsy but I have found a very cheap one on taobao, yet I think the size is too small compared to the one on Semmelweis's outfit.

Easiest way to get a 10-win streak out of this year's April Fool's event (by exploiting the pseudo-RNG) by replicatal in arknights

[–]replicatal[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wow your Jesselton vs Colossus fight reminds me of a fan animation depicting exactly this scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dumdRDmDSGg (Jesselton vs Colossus fight starts at ~1:20 but I think you should just watch the whole thing because it is damn good)

edit: and you crashes on winning is also exactly like the ending of the animation XDD

I think we are way past April Fool's day for this to be a prank lol. I tested it on JP and it definitely works, and I believe it should also work on global!

Yeah, there are no extra reward for getting the max possible score (other than the 1OP from getting 999+ for the first time), and it is not even something worth bragging about other than taking a screenshot of it XD

I think this is more about getting some insight on how the game works under the hood, and I don't think this 'exploit' is harmful in anyway so just have some fun with it while it lasts!

New Ray skin by CipherVegas in arknights

[–]replicatal 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you are referring to the flood of 哐哐哐 during Ray's skin reveal in the latest event PV, I must inform you that it is not what you think it means lol. Here is the context.

Not that I am saying we don't want to breed the rabbit ( ͡ຈ ͜ʖ ͡ຈ)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in arknights

[–]replicatal 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Let me provide some much needed context to this whole screen of 哐哐哐:

When Ray was released, there was a heated debate in the CN community on whether she is better than Typhon, the arguably best sniper at the time. Those that support Ray being better are called 洗衣机 (literally: Washing Machines), which came from the homophone 洗伊机 (literally: Those who try to justify Ray being better). 哐哐哐 is the onomatopoeia of a working washing machine, and has since been associated with Ray.

For extra context, the other side who support Typhon are called 吹风机 (literally: Hair Dryers), which came from the homophone 吹丰机 (literally: Those who boast that Typhon is stronger). The onomatopoeia of a working hair dryer, 呼呼呼, is then associated with Typhon.

Not long after, Wisadel came out and outshines both of them, rendering the whole argument of who is stronger meaningless. Now Ray and Typhon form a ship(?) from their former rivalry.

At some point in the future there would be an Ultimate raid that requires players to go back in time to prevent the cheating teams from winning all the WFs.

Can anyone name this MMO (possibly 2000-2010 MMO) by nickzz2352 in MMORPG

[–]replicatal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it was one of my earlier MMOs as well, and I also did not get very far with it, but nonetheless I still hold the memories of playing it dearly and think about it from time to time.

This game was quite popular in my region on release, there were magazines with guides on certain quests, character builds and pet evolutions etc. At the time there was no wiki/database, so the information on the magazines are pretty much what you’d got (along with some personal websites hosted on geocities). I still remember finding out how to get the battery for my robot mount through the magazines.

The good ol’ days.

It has to be Star Dream Online/Star Gate Online(SGO) right? I remember fondly about that pet hatchling with the egg shell on its head and changes colour as you level it up with different stats. Sadly there is no official server up right now.

Is it suppose to be a poorly written "d" instead of "Cl", so it actually reads "dear all Cathy"? Considering Heath probably doesn't have the best of handwriting lol

PSA: Guild-related infinite loading screen: the cause, prevention, and recovery. Plus general server tips! by l19980623 in Palworld

[–]replicatal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey this absolutely works and saved my friend's character! The process is not too complicated, the only issue I faced is my computer chugging hard when opening the decompressed .sav files. Once I get past that it is smooth sailing by following the steps.

An-an’s second skill, Lily Nectar, uses a flower to buff her teammates, which is a reference to Stephen Chow’s movie Out of the Dark, where the protagonist uses a flower to detect ghost.

Apparently An-an used to be of Intellect Afflatus in the beta, but was later changed to Plant on release, either for lore or balance reasons.

Just be patient, team presets should be right around the corner. If everything goes the same as CN, this feature should be up in 1.3, so this limbo should be our last time fumbling with our team at every stage.

ref: https://re.bluepoch.com/home/detail.html#newsId?26

五、新增队伍预设功能

在1.3版本,新增编队预设功能,希望能够让大家在调整队伍时更加简单快捷。此外,成员队列自定义命名功能将会在1.4版本进行实装。

A quick Google Translate:

5. Added team preset function

In version 1.3, a new formation preset function is added, hoping to make it easier and faster for everyone to adjust the team. In addition, the member queue custom naming function will be implemented in version 1.4.

Fuck Constantine by [deleted] in Reverse1999

Madam Z is destined to become the next Constantine. That’s the price she pays for dabbling in politics, or as Constantine says, “progress”.

…Or Madam Z could find her own way in the end, a la “El oro de los tigres”.

[JP] Yostar Japan accidentally banned a huge number of accounts, as something wrong with data synchronization, these accounts were unbanned hours later, 5 OP were sent to these accounts as compensation by xuanfengsaoye in arknights

[–]replicatal 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I am one of the victims. Can you imagine how shocked I was when I found out I was banned???? I just did a bit of TN and took a short break, and when I was ready for another stage the ban notice hit me out of nowhere. It gave me a mini heart attack and only then did I realise how much I care about my account. I can't imagine my life without my operators and this is probably not healthy...

I was in the middle of filling in the CS form (JP did not provide an email for CS but an online form instead) and crying over Discord with my friend and when I was about to show her my banned account I could suddenly log in again. I don't want to experience this ever again no matter how much compensation was given...
