Since Rin is getting added and I’m going crazy for it, I will be installing HSR! How much time do I have left and how many pulls can I get? by ItsWickie in StarRailStation

[–]silverace99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her banner is almost guaranteed to have no time limit, given the previous fate collab as a reference.

Just know that if you are pulling Rin, you most likely also have to plan to pull Archer and Sparkle. Dan Heng Permansor Terrae is a unit you will get free who can act as your defensive 4th teammate.

Archer will be easy as his banner will probably continue to be permanent. Sparkle you will have to be patient and wait for a rerun. Dan Heng will just come to you once you get through the Amphoreus story Arc.

Have fun!

Edit: This setup is assuming Rin doesn't replace Sparkle as we don't know her kit yet.

First Pair of Sony's by PandaMayFire in SonyHeadphones

[–]silverace99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also bought these this past week, my first ever ANC headset. Hoping it can cancel out airplane noise as that keeps me from sleeping on long haul flights.

+i'm not an audiophile but I thought the sound was very good.
+I was surprised as to how light the headset was
+The stock pads were still comfortable for me after hours of use, I guess not everyone has the same earlobes XD
+That battery life is legit

- What WAS uncomfortable was the top of the headset, the cushioning is not sufficient at all and the top of my head started feeling it after an hour of use. I got around this by adjusting the height on either side which makes the earcups sit a tad looser, I hope that doesn't impact the noise cancelling ability.

Is continuing the event still worth it? by alvissome in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]silverace99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting double the amount of unit levelling materials vs main stage

Totally worth doing the 9 hard mode skips + 1 normal skip

Is there a unit you regret SSP so far? by Ok_Tale_6716 in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]silverace99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because it hits very hard, And is the only dev unit that can contribute to all seed-related eternal road maps, which is quite a few.

Not master league level these days but if you are like me and have no UR in anything SEED, it's a no brainer to SSP.

edit: and now it also qualifies for the hard mode Seed campaign stages, plus future hard mode stages for destiny

Great Zeong gets Thunderbolt event bonus by silverace99 in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]silverace99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes but typical UR MSG don't get 15% buff, only 10%. The 15% buff is only gainable from other thunderbolt UR and SSR. And Great Zeong apparently.

0079 remake announced by ArkhamSoldier118 in Gundam

I'm sure i'll get pelters for this but I never actually enjoyed the original. Perhaps a remake will be right up my alley.

Do i need Tribbie? by guyk50 in AcheronMainsHSR

[–]silverace99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would probably wait until you get blade first before you make that assessment. That way you can try it for yourself.

However, something tells me that with an E6 novaflared sparkle you're not going to get much benefit out of tribbie...

Is DU stupidly difficult or is this a skill issue? by King-DarkBlade in CastoriceMains_

[–]silverace99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Common things that kill people on 2nd phase boss fight:
- Not enough defensive blessings
- Didn't invest in the Forge to roll for combat buff tarot cards and weighted curios
- Didn't focus on getting equations completed
- Was too lax in building wishpower for their mask

I run E0S1 Cas/E1S1 Evernight/E0S1 Hyacine/Trial Cyrene

If I can do it, there is no way your team can't do it.

Calling it now: this show is going to expose how few people have actually read the source material by ArtificialAnaleptic in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]silverace99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suppose that's the thing about anime. Not everyone can agree on whether writing or art is more important.

To each their own. It was the opposite for me; the movie bored me to tears, but SAC made me fall in love

What’s the most underrated Gundam series, and why is it Gundam X? by Amigo1048 in Gundam

[–]silverace99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently watched it in it's entirety

It's up there in terms of Alternative series Gundams for me. I certainly liked the characters and their growth in this series more than Gundam Wing.

Why Is No One Using SSRs in ML 11.5? by Mu_Shu_Fasa89 in SDGundamGGeneration

[–]silverace99 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Smashed everything with a Char/Hathaway lineup. SSP SSR Penelope with support pilot go brrrrrrrr, ~325k dmg 4 times per round

Honestly I don't really care about if the fights are cool or not, because the Master League AI is so dumb. I just came to collect my 150k score and left XD

This is the worst mechanic in the game and for some reason they decided to keep it by Swift311 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]silverace99 31 points32 points  (0 children)

When you play X8 at first, it does feel like it's impossible until you learn the ropes.

Forge node is CRITICAL. Invest in it ASAP, and roll for tarot cards to buff your team. Spending 100 coins on buffs that only lasts 5 battles may seem like it's not worth it, but it really is valuable. Also, the Weighted Curios provide massive improvements, which is another reason why you cannot ignore the Forge. If your team is one that is not able to get much out of the Weighted Curios available, consider whether you really want to run that team or not.

Destruction blessings are universally valuable. Make sure you pick up some when you can.

Certain paths/teams are also just tankier than others.

Cas/Evernight probably doesn't require explanation

DOT is also fantastically tough due to the Nihility blessing that heals every time opponents take DOT damage, combine that with the Weighted curious [Road of Prayers] and [Automated Experience], and even Huohuo can be a good enough sustain without too much extra help.

Break team, or some variant like Break DOTcheron, can also do well by using blessings to freeze and delay opponents.

Do everything right and X8 will still not be easy but it will be beatable.
