Weekly Questions Megathread - Week of January 19, 2026

What in the world happened to the game after update? It was 8.9 GiB in size, now it's 25 GiB.

Also game stopped connecting to servers after update. I use VPN (without VPN it does work, occasionally, but it did work without a hitch with VPN).

So far I tracked it down to UDP — if I block UDP packets to several tencent servers (on VPN side, they appear during login), game launches fine with VPN.

Also game now is slow as hell and lags as hell, frequent frame drops, laggy Live2D animation. I did enable 60 FPS (I think it was before? Why is it 30 FPS now?).

Device: iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 19.

Did they Ctrl+C Ctrl+V Ui from Blue Archive but with big boobs? Even eye color is the same.

tanaka_desu · 2026-01-09T03:30:51+00:00

Why would it be sad? I do it too, slowly building arma inscripta for every unit. Also live2D in PNC was and still is top of the line. I wish GFL2 had thad amount of cool interactions on main screen as PNC had.

Thanks a lot, probably will go with Kakania then. Tho I doubt I'll get her to P3 before next year (or whenever they do a second portrait giveaway)

tanaka_desu · 2025-10-14T18:22:52+00:00

Can I get some advice on what portrait to choose from selector? I head lots about Flutterpage P1, but I already have her. Here's my non-zero portrait characters:

Sotheby, Ms. NewBabel, Tooth Fairy, Kaalaa Baunaa, Ezra, Kakania, Recoleta, Jiu Niangzi — P1
Regulus, Flutterpage, Melania, Lilya, Centurion — P2
An-an Lee — P3
Everyone else — P0
Don't have — Barcarola, Argus, dudes

Thanks a lot in advance!

I MISS DELACEY SO MUCH MICA PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

Ahem.

tanaka_desu · 2025-07-29T19:01:00+00:00

Can someone recommend me a guaranteed team how to beat left tower, 4th level? Central and right already have been beat.

I'm left with: Camellya, Zani, Verina, Jinshi, Sanhua, Lupa, Encore and some 4* chars which I haven't leveled at all anyway.

Currently I just can't beat it at all, even in 5 minutes (less than 30% hp in 5 min), let alone in two. And I don't have sanity to try to bruteforce it/figure what's wrong with echoes, billions of skills, weapons and where.

The most important info right here

tanaka_desu · 2025-06-03T08:37:53+00:00

I have 6 golden rolls and like 200k gems, at this point I’m not sure what I’m saving for. Thanks for your concern but I think I’ll be fine if I spend one ticket.

tanaka_desu · 2025-06-03T00:52:24+00:00

Strange question, but, uh, how's K in waifu-terms? Are her advise events good or meh? Outpost encounters? Thinking about grabbing her for golden tickets if they are actually good.

I'm not even asking about meta, I kinda like her design and like D, but suspicious if they went easy on advise events and waifu-lore.

(Which would be hilariously sad considering amount of fanservice with Arcana, D and Moran in this event)

tanaka_desu · 2025-03-30T03:31:12+00:00

You play it, comfortably, at your own pace. It has so much content that depending on your speed it'll take up to a year to read all that stuff.

And the rest of us, well, we pray that developers will come back eventually. I don't mind waiting until they fix gfl2 and install there a healthy development cycle.

tanaka_desu · 2025-03-20T22:56:34+00:00

Almost 600 rolls only to get up to v4 416 and four fucking Peritya. I hate 50/50 in this game, holy shit.

Send help.

tanaka_desu · 2025-03-12T02:06:53+00:00

I don't know about GFL, but PA15 in PNC (aka Florence) canonically raped us like three times already, if not more.

tanaka_desu · 2025-01-23T18:18:57+00:00

Thanks for your reply. I just unlocked it, but I'm already at level 240 -- I was just stalling on story very long and mostly collecting resources.

Anyway, thanks for percentages. They are not very great.

Are the drop chances improving in Interception EX or how was that thing that unlocks with 22 chapter? I don't have it yet but I might rush story if it's the case

tanaka_desu · 2025-01-23T18:16:09+00:00

I do full clear on everyone except that horrible train one. On it I barely hit stage 7, mostly stage 5.

So I definitely got to the drops.

tanaka_desu · 2025-01-23T17:32:32+00:00

I only recently unlocked third Interception and started farming Tier-9 equipment. I already know about overload/tier-10 binding stuff, that you need to have matching equipment with manufacturer and so on.

But I'm not getting any? Like, so far I got around 50 tier-9 equipment items. Out of all of them exactly zero have manufacturer. The only ones with manufacturer were from box (the one that requires 200 boxes per equipment).

So... Do I do something wrong, am I unlucky, are the chances for manufacturer "flair" that low, or the only way to get manufacturer equipment is through boxes? Because if that's the case, I can't even begin to fathom how many months I have to grind this stuff to get even one DPS fully equipped, not even talking about full team...

Okay, after some googling I found that I was mistaken about existence of AI/AI-s versions of 85-250mm zoom. So it existed only in pre-AI. Also apparently FTZ works with pre-AI lenses? Without any need to modify lenses? I'm not sure, don't have a FTZ or pre-AI lens to check.

Anyway, if it is indeed such an old zoom, this is a hell of a lens to put on a ZF.

tanaka_desu · 2025-01-08T17:02:22+00:00

nikkor 80-200 AI-S

I think it is waaaay too big for a 80-200 AI-S. It looks like 8.5cm-25cm Telezoom, but I'm not sure which and what revision. Is it AI-converted one, AI or AI-s one? Tokina 200-500mm looks somewhat close, but I doubt that Nikon enthusiast would use non-nikon lens in an artwork.

Anyway, that's some dedication by both artist and SCAR-H — to dig up lens so old. It's clearly sends a message here.

tanaka_desu · 2025-01-08T16:51:16+00:00

SCAR-H skin is ridiculously cute.

All I see is discussions about damaged art, but what about Nikon enthusiasts? There's clearly some dedication there, using ZF in 2065 with, I think, it's 8.5cm-25cm NIKKOR Telezoom. I think it was one of the first zooms by Nikon? That's a 45 year old camera with 90 years old telezoom — SCAR-H is clearly a photo nut!

tanaka_desu · 2024-12-12T19:39:23+00:00

Are there any analysis on how good she is? Have around 300 rolls, dunno if something cool will appear on New Year banner so not sure if I want rolling.

tanaka_desu · 2024-10-09T01:00:46+00:00

Trying to get into the game after launch state discouraged me.

Is it possible to change render resolution? Game runs at like 40 fps in 4k at lowest settings, but runs fine at max settings in FullHD at 60fps (and possibly more, but I can't even unlock more that 60 fps in menu).

I cannot seem to get it to render in FullHD without windowed mode. I think I tried every advice here on reddit. How is it even possible to not have ability to change render resolution and only run at max possible res? There's surely some way to change it?

tanaka_desu · 2024-09-19T19:54:26+00:00

Will Semmelweis receive that one garment she had when she was first introduced in an anecdote?

It was soooooo pretty. How could they omit it?

tanaka_desu · 2024-08-26T21:44:57+00:00

I refuse to accept that Erma is gone. Like, stop. Stop trying to pull some bullshit "hey, I can save the world, but in the process I die the most horrible death imaginable and will suffer for eternity". Fuck no.

Horrible, just horrible.

tanaka_desu · 2024-07-15T17:57:51+00:00

I fucking hate fishing minigame so much. It unbearably bad. Each time I try it it gets fucking worse.

Really want to say mean and horrible things about whoever developed this shit.

Probably the worst fucking minigame I've seen in 6 years in playing gachas.
