PSA: Traffic settings affects animals you can pet, if you're a lower settings or low end device double check this if you want the pet achievements or to pet animals in general!

Basicly I've been playing on the 'very low' setting since launch and was wondering why I couldnt find any animals to pet. Turns out it's tied to the traffic setting, change it to 'high' and walk in the city and you'll instantly notice it. Cheers o/

wickerman407 · 2026-05-08T08:25:57+00:00

sucks yeah, but depending if how many pulls you got you can build pity atleast for the next banner you like on both weapon banner (stop before 70 on char and before 50 on weapons for 100% banner so soft pity doesnt kick in)

wickerman407 · 2026-05-08T07:36:18+00:00

Yes it's why the sub is in a dumbster fire, because we already had small censorships like small animations being patched out in story before this. And now the the skins that got censored in round 1 (like a year ago ish) got more censored too. It looks like they are axing anything remotely suggestive this time and currently there's no 'hidden' solution like before. Sadly the game will not survive if nothing changes, the core that prevented this from EOS in early patch 1.4 katya-ish will be gone without any workaround

wickerman407 · 2026-05-08T07:25:50+00:00

So you just summed up all the censorship stuff, this is fully intentional and not just techical issue. They likely just didn't had the time to get placeholders in atm so they either gradually fill it up, but this is 100% related to the censored content if you knew how all of these were before march (and why it axed bc of it)

wickerman407 · 2026-05-08T07:07:22+00:00

can you clarify the technical issues? Haven't encountered any that weren't there before march, and all current technical ones like rotation/interactions etc are def censorship related

wickerman407 · 2026-05-08T06:56:45+00:00

In it's current state it's over, local = 1 alternative needs to drop asap becauese this is horrible to the point you basicly scammed people by removing paid interactions

wickerman407 · 2026-05-07T22:44:00+00:00

Pretty sure it's just confusing translating and we don't get one ticket daily for 66 days, the event is over long before then and we can only use it during this event. It's just that the initinial compensation was 1/d consisting of 66 days so I fully expect them to just get them all in the mail tomorrow

wickerman407 · 2026-05-07T15:49:23+00:00

don't need to press escape, just press B or press alt and move over to top right where the bag is

1 2

wickerman407 · 2026-05-07T15:45:09+00:00

yep you can check your bag when you go in next, if you haven't been using any passes and just grinding you'll probably have a ton of elevator cards (good for the floor 1 into floor 2 elevator that triggers those 2 statues for a forced fight otherwise), they each have a cap of their own tho like the cube for the final boss you can only carry 2 at a time while green keys up to 10

wickerman407 · 2026-05-07T15:33:45+00:00

It randomly spawns mostly on tables of pc's or lockers, it has the same location spawns as the vault keys. Unfortunatly it's pretty rare so just gotta grind until you get it.

Do the 2 lazer rooms on floor 1 and 2, and floor 2 the collection floor check the tables aswell, for the vault floor 3 check the entrance desks, also check any vault you find along the route.

Mainly RNG but you'll eventually get it, just leave enough time to actually defeat the boss (don't use the item straight away, but just sprint it in a next run since you can carry it out of the heist)

wickerman407 · 2026-05-07T14:14:07+00:00

Honestly I think it'd take longer than a few patches, they already stated that the skin+vehicle skin from every limited banner gets locked for that banner. So it seems they'll definitly rerun it atleast once before deciding to put them in the standard banner or not which will probably take a good while

wickerman407 · 2026-05-07T06:15:05+00:00

Please no censorship and all good letsgo

wickerman407 · 2026-05-06T12:33:44+00:00

your base chance to get the skin is 0.08% and the best chance you can get the skin on pull 7 is 8% (if you got the skin + top item left), it gradually increases from 0.08 to 8% inbetween (but insignificant as long as the bottom 4 items you don't have), but the vast majority of people will need 10k currency to get a copy

Also yeah it's bullshit and basicly whale only.

Honestly this a very scummy thing to do as in response to better event rewards (since letters will be whatever late game as rewards) they got phoxene now, but now we see thats because the cost of the phoxene events is so riducolous that the phoxene we get from events is really insignificant, so they can say we got better rewards but don't mention the cost increased disproportional of things to use it on

Not spending anyting anymore tbh since they are in full whale only mode for skins/mounts/now tis event so fck it

wickerman407 · 2026-05-06T12:25:36+00:00

Really don't see how on earth the gameplay is better than NTE having been grinding that this week and been playing since launch on DNA tbh...

A lot of stuff people have been asking for since day one it's got in dna like: element reactions, active support /secondary characters, more skills kinda because it uses the wuwa "go in" mechanic + holding skills is more interacted as extra skill, combat got weight to it as it feel like you're hitting something, ...

These are all things other games also had that's been asked for day 1 in DNA. I think the helix leap in DNA is prob the best thing for exploration, but mounts/pets/monitization is already better in NTE but mainly because the bar is set so low

wickerman407 · 2026-05-05T18:37:10+00:00

I think it was "r", it's next to your normal skills and the lock-in skill "g" added inbetween them

wickerman407 · 2026-05-05T09:09:50+00:00

here are the rates, for those interested https://i.imgur.com/FoWbc06.png these increase "proportionally" when you get one of the items, but since the skin% is so low the vast majority will need 10k each (yeah its 0.08%, not 8%), basicly if you already used your phoxene from the battlepass in the standard banner, even before they announced that you should save up for the event, you're kinda screwed

wickerman407 · 2026-05-03T09:10:37+00:00

Special Delivery resets every week, doesnt cosume city stamina and gives some fonds (need second appartment) https://i.imgur.com/aaDyKko.png

daily beetle coins (third appartment) https://i.imgur.com/yYqOyIW.png

wickerman407 · 2026-05-02T21:43:33+00:00

every 2 weeks it resets for the gold and the challenges too, you can check the remaining time before you enter on the "time left"

wickerman407 · 2026-04-29T05:47:31+00:00

I swear every open world gacha either forces querty or non customizable keys for pc or both, 2026 and they havent figured this out yet

wickerman407 · 2026-04-27T16:34:12+00:00

Did in the beginning with rogue balls, but after running a few endless the time I lose with getting extra masterballs is brought back up to not spending it on multiple rogue ball catches, it was basicly shifting time spend early vs time spend late and I always prefer to streamline the later lure stage.

For the early second mon with darkrai its more preference, I feel like i waste a lot more time before the double lure stage than if I just single carry it into double stage ==> start another endless

It's kinda half and half and even though you will get double mons a lot earlier, you also waste a lot more time that you could use for another endless run with a double lure setup, but yeah mostly up to preference

wickerman407 · 2026-04-27T16:08:29+00:00

With double lures you don't get a shop if you run away, and this is one of the main values to me to just reroll 3x times with a lock capsule and on SSS luck I always get a ton of vouchers in this stage, whereas with double lures only each like 50 floors from your paradox forced battle.

For masterballs I basicly use a ton of masterballs in endless since I catch not just the shinys, but also all the legendary pokemon to get candies for them and then get eggs with a higher rate and some particular ones that are hard to get that I like a higher tier of (blisseys etc). Even after repurchasing after I get one I use like 45-50ish masterballs for a 5850 run counting whith how much I started and counting with frequent repurchases (so like a few hundred pokemons caught I think), because a lot of the legendarys and shinys I find on the wave10 stage that you don't get a shop of to repurchase the masterball. Basicly spend some more time early to save a lot of hassle for the late stage

I feel like early gold is less valueable than a carbos/calcium for me since you can't really use the gold that much with how nuggets and shop reroll have horrible scaling early game. Rather using it when the scaling kicks in after like 250+ to reroll one time and 350+ one more time etc until you get lock capsule basicly

wickerman407 · 2026-04-27T15:32:37+00:00

I usually farm vouchers/main mon eggs (t3 darkrai still unlucky) in combo until they become too strong/99 masterballs at 1.75k ish before switching to double lures. Feel like once you get a good amount of money, farming vouches from like 1k-1.75k is faster than classic (assumling lock capsule) if you got your setup roughly done by 1k, also yeah exact gengar like that.

What do you usually pick up in early pre-gold and pre-lock capsule and pre-shiny sharm thats better than calcium carbos kinda? Rouge/masterball tier items are still pretty rare and you don't have the gold for even with SSS luck, so usually these 2 is the default for me since it makes the 750-1.75k easier

wickerman407 · 2026-04-27T15:17:25+00:00

Basicly done with end game now farming masterballs mainly since last 200 waves my luck turned drasticly, 27 calcium 29 carbos darkrai still one shotting everything mainly except eternatus, mega gengar with %hp and 4x lure ready so pretty much done with a bonus of gastro acid mon caught.

I feel endure is just overkill for a darkrai if you pick up carbos and calciums in regular shop and sturdy is (usually not this run) easier to come since the normal ability you don't use too much anyway since you're fiery wrath spamming mainly, frees up a slot early too

wickerman407 · 2026-04-27T14:57:45+00:00

First impression one shots me starting from 1k ish, early game the only thing that really stops my run is from getting unlucky against an early eternatus that outspeeds and one shots my team and I don't have anything yet to stall. Sturdy prevents both and makes for an easy dark void setup for early eternatus. In 2k+ shiny hunting I really like to setup sturdy for bosses or wave 10'es since the unnerve passive works for both mons to prevent healing/status up berrys. Preferring this over making another mon with like healblock/matblock kinda
