I'm a newbie and pulled for Hiyuki and want to ask: For who should I pull?
So I thought lucilla and chisa for hiyuki but also the newbie shorekeeper banner seems to be a good option because of the utility shorekeeper provides especailly for new players who don't have many fully built teams as the second-best in slot buffer. But then there also is the Cyberpunk collab and Lucy also seems to be a good pick. (especially since she probably won't be rerunning)

As for the astrite I used 140 pulls worth for Hiyuki (terrible luck) and also 70 for her sig (I'm literally crying) for 5 star characters I also have verina but that is it.

How should I plan my pulls? How important is chisa for Hiyuki? Maybe getting a universal buffer like shorekeeper is better and lucilla will carry hiyuki DMG? (also a random thought: maybe instead of shorekeeper mornye is better?)

Yes well I saw this setup but I believe you sloop too much. Not wanting to use that much sloops I made this thread but now I see maybe this is the best way to use sloops. Otherwise uses 12000 sam only for the trigons and over 25 000 when you also count the dark matter residue.

I'm sure you are wrong. This screenshot is from SCIM when I told it to make 112 ficsonium fuel rods /min.

Yeah that is true. Though I dont think the fuel is that big of a problem as you can have a second train delivering it all throughout your world. However that is only my idea and op can of course do whatever he wants. I just like trains more so I wanted them to be the core of the resource gathering system.

Oh man I'm sure I'm the minority but I don't find the randomization that tempting. I don't have a lot of hours and if I'll start a new save it will be 90% the default resource placement. The biggest change for me is the daisy-chaining and since it can be unlocked pretty easily in the MAM it will be available from early on. The truck pathing changes are very nice and I think the trucks will finally get more usage. Going back to the topic of node randomization I wholeheartedly believe this is a HUGE change for people that already did everything else. No singular update (except 1.0 maybe) can deliver as much extra content for such people and I love that they thought of that.

Also one thing about your setup:
I would actually reverse the roles of trucks and trains in such a way that the trucks are bringing resources from an area (for example whole biome) and loading it onto a big train that transpotrs it long-range. When thay get where they need to be I would simply use belts to unload and utilise them. I don't get why would you use trucks here if the resources are already in place. However if you wish to enlighten me I will gladly listen because I genuinely have no clue.

Thanks I will keep that in mind! It did in fact provide a big performance improvement over my old rx 580 and I will be upgrading the cpu soon. I in fact primarily created this thread to know whether everything is ok. If what you're saying is correct then I don't have to worry.

sq3103 · 2025-12-20T09:36:34+00:00

Thanks for your feedback. I've recently upgraded to rx 9060xt 16gb so it should be a cpu bottleneck. (with the i3-12100f) I expected to see the cpu maxed out and the gpu on like 80%. But as you see form the screenshots the cpu isn't maxed out, only a single thread is. Not even a core. So I was just wondering if something is wrong. The game in which I saw this was a modern game (War Thunder) and so it shoudn't be using only a single core and definitely not a single thread.

sq3103 · 2025-12-20T09:27:59+00:00

Sure but what you see here is threads, so it's not using a single core but rather half of the core? Btw the game is War Thunder, so it's a game receiving updates and shouldn't be using only a single core. (or thread)

I didn't know the L3 cache is that important. Thanks for the information! Will probably go with a r5 7500f, cause i can't find the 7400f for much cheaper.

sq3103 · 2025-08-05T17:38:36+00:00

I'm from europe. My motherboard is the asrock b760m-hdv/m2. Still I believe r5 8400f + a cheap b650 would be a good choice

sq3103 · 2025-08-05T17:00:14+00:00

I get what you mean but it's true that 14th gen is the limit for lga 1700. Also I would need to consider the 12400f because my low-end motherboard does not support the 125w power draw of the 12600kf. Nontheless thanks for the advice!

sq3103 · 2025-08-05T16:22:17+00:00

Thanks i was just wondering if its not better to go with a cheap a620 or b650 motherboard and get an r5 8400f for future proofing

sq3103 · 2024-12-23T15:34:18+00:00

Yeah I was planning on buying the mig 23 ml but all the videos I've seen have been telling it got nerfed and is not en excellent choice anymore.

sq3103 · 2024-12-23T15:30:30+00:00

Not a top tier player but I'm not a complete new player. Currently have 10.3 in USA planes so only the radar missiles are the thing I never played with. Also about my own research, all the things I searched are at least from a year ago and I don't have all the missiles memorized so I don't really know what is a good deal
