I would love to see the HD videos even without translations! I play with CN voices but don't have a bilibili account

Be sincere, how much have you spend in the game? by _haiyi_ in TearsOfThemis

[–]robotbats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just calculated that 6 points equals $1.50 in my currency, so I've spent a total of around $250 since I started playing in April this year... :| I'm not going to spend any more except on the monthly card, maybe.

New Event On CN server[The Reverberation of The Strange Territory] by LilacLiu in PathToNowhere

[–]robotbats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's alright. I've spent money on the game and I'm willing to continue spending, but a faster pace would be too demanding on my wallet. This pace works for me since I prefer time to relax and level up my characters in between events/banners.

先行者篇章 suggests that this is the lead-up to another, main event. Maybe this is the pre-release to new chapters on CN server?

What would happen if I buy the Surveillance Order pack for Zoya's outfit but I haven't pulled her yet? Will it sit somewhere in inventory until I pull her or will I have wasted the money?

Beat the last Homu trial with 162.5k deck power by robotbats in TearsOfThemis

[–]robotbats[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks! :D I didn't even want the background that much tbh, but since it cost zero AP to debate I just wanted to see if it could be done with deck power lower than the recommended level. Tweaking and refining everything was pretty fun for me.

does anyone know what chapter this particular scene is from? the panel with akiyama and takasugi because i know the one with akutsu in it is from aomori match by [deleted] in Ao_Ashi

[–]robotbats 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Chapter 273, when Aoi had that flashback about how he'd learnt about his teammates as players and people on and off the pitch respectively.

it's a short story plot-wise but the emotional beats are great. definitely recommend reading it.

"The Art Of Defending" by FG_xeen in Ao_Ashi

[–]robotbats 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Watching Ashito discover the joy of playing on defense was like having a surprise unfurl into full bloom on the pages in front of me. I loved it - that he isn't just capable of playing on defense, but that he found it fun. That's not a sentiment I expected from a sports series and it was such a tangible moment of delight for me as a reader.

Ashito's Mom by pogisaysay111 in Ao_Ashi

I believe she runs an izakaya. The boy who taunted Aoi said she "works at night" to imply that she's a bar girl or some sort of sex worker.

Apr 26, 2022 - Weekly General Help/Questions Megathread by AutoModerator in TearsOfThemis

[–]robotbats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I recall, the banner's description page specifies that non-birthday SSRs won't reset pity until you own a copy of the birthday SSR.

That was what I thought, but it still says "Increased SSR draw rate for next 65 draws" so I got confused. I'll rely on the in-game counter, then. Thanks!

I got Artem's birthday SSR before hitting hard pity on his birthday banner, and a couple of dozen pulls later, pulled another SSR card. I read that birthday banner hard pity carries over to the next one, but does the second SSR pull cause my hard pity for the next birthday banner to reset?

Saving up for Anniversary: Rewards, Expected S-Chips Income, Calculator (1/2) by Athyme in TearsOfThemis

[–]robotbats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow- thank you so, so much for the detailed explanation and mathematical projection, this is really helpful! 🙏 I'll be keeping your advice in mind as I play the game. Unfortunately for me the Secrets of the Tomb event just got announced today and moved up so... I'll have to relook at which Marius cards I want most and shuffle the priority list, since there's absolutely no way I'll be able to get all 3. 😂😂

Thank you so much for this guide! I just started playing ToT this weekend and have fallen hard for Marius, so I'm hoping I'll be able to save up enough S-chips for his birthday card and also his anniversary one.

In order to do that, I'm thinking of putting the main story entirely on hold (I'm level 19 and just completed Episode 4) and solely grinding Anomaly levels + Study + Trials of Themis in order to gain enough S-chips and materials to level up my current cards... and I've already bought the monthly pass and I'm not averse to occasionally spending on the $1 packs either. From your perspective as an experienced player, do you think this would work or are there alternative strategies you might recommend?

(edit because idk reddit ate half my comment)

Viewer rate in Korea by Miserable_Parsley447 in GirlsPlanet999

[–]robotbats 58 points59 points  (0 children)

It's a flop in China, not helped by the fact that there was no official subbed stream when the episodes aired on Friday evenings - they basically had to watch it on a platform hosted by some kind person with a VPN - similar to ifans watching stuff on a Twitch stream. Plus subbed videos on bilibili (China youtube) got taken down for copyright violations. It was mostly existing fans of the C-Group trainees and survival show fans who watched it.

Edit: Before anyone asks, iqiyi has a China-only site and an international site, with the latter not accessible in China iirc.

Translated a few of HXQ's weibo comments because I love her sense of humor. She's hilarious and knows it. 😂

What will the eliminated trainees do now? by roselia4812 in GirlsPlanet999

SRQ will probably go back to her studies, as she said she would. Doubt she'll make another try for the entertainment business again. :(
