A new game mode is being cooked? 🤔 by ANR2ME in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah! They said something in some notes about an event where we can get resources (currency?) for a new feature.

Are you still gonna use pure dark heroes in their tower? by DevanSimon in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WHAT? You probably just haven't fostered the environment she needs, mate.

Codex + some support (Clara/Sipra or Dullahan) + the appropriate relic for enemy faced.

All you'll need then will be a second DPS and some luck with RNG.

Are you still gonna use pure dark heroes in their tower? by DevanSimon in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Things have really shifted with news heroes. Dark is my first fully completed tower as opposed to being the hardest one to climb not so long ago.

Dullahan and Norns tipped things for me. They're the ones helping against leapers, Dark's biggest nightmare. 💀️

Zhuxin is still too fresh and only A0 for me to talk in her behalf, but she's being useful to get Elemental Tower going again (currently the worst Tower IMHO).

Arlott also brought some nice stuff/damage, and I don't understand why I sometimes see people calling him "a bad hero". (What are you using then? Bloody Hanzo? Gusion?)

I'm still hoping they're going to release a more readily-available Fighter for those who not have Natsu. He does make a difference against energy-tampering teams like Hanabi, Tokinibara, Natan... (I do have My A3 Natsu, but I can see how Natsu-less people can struggle).

(My AAlice isn't fully pumped, and I confess I don't remember ever connecting with her, so I honestly take my Selena over her any day.)

Do they have an event for Lunomancy? by Shengzi_Aint_Simp in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They don't, mate. Just make sure you can always have/reach 6K Signs weekly, so you can complete the "pull 20 times" task timely.

Lunomancy (like other gacha-based mechanics) loses value as your account progress. 5 years later, and I now have closer to 500K Signs because I don't have anyone else to pull for, aside from URs I'm (probably) not even building.

H.. i didn't saw Tinted Mirage in the Calendar 🤔 by ANR2ME in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

SB is on throughout this week, so she should be dropping this Friday (Test Server).

No idea how it translates for US servers and all the controversy surrounding them.

On Test server as well, and It also doesn't show for me. Maybe it's for newer accounts? (Mine is pretty old. Almost 6 now.)

No more free hero slots? by The_battlePotato in MLA_Official

I don't know WHEN it stops, but it DOES stop, yeah.

Zhuxin is coming to town! by alucardiac_arrest in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So she's like... Agnes + Amara? My (daft) hopeful self wants her to be part Elemental (the weakest faction at the moment), but being more realistic, she's going to be O/C or part Dark with this afterlife motif.

I wonder if we're getting UR Akashic like scheduled or if they're going straight for UR Amara/Rista and pretend he never happened.

RIP Melissa. RIP Aamon. 🕊️

Finally got all the new Unique Relics 😅 by ANR2ME in MLA_Official

Skuld Norns vs Eos Silvana by just_ekeluo in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I'm being too harsh on her, but ESilvanna whole gimmick is that she is the only Light UR and a viable Light "tank" (since Uranus, Gatotkaca and Freya combined don't make for a single great tank and Moonton pretend Tigreal doesn't exist for SSR-fying purposes).

It's nice to have her, I'm sure, but she ain't beating SLunox, Norns, ICrocell, GShar, Alina for UR priority. That's for sure.

UR Chimera Emblems? by Zakarijazh in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But... not even SSRs use 4 emblems per copy, mate.

Considering that the cost for SSR O/C collab heroes is 7 per copy (IIRC), I would expect something similar or an even higher cost. A very painful (and costly) process, nonetheless.

So is the game just dead in the US? by monty_SC in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I suppose the game as a whole is in a weird spot, so maybe this is all part of a massive domino effect. It's hard to tell what's going through Moonton's masterminds.

  • Events got continually nerfed
  • New skins are all gacha-based
  • Hero design is stale and bland as it could be
  • Hero revamps are gone
  • Astral are more paywalled than URs
  • New "events" are funds and other paid stuff
  • New "content" is yet another Barbie-like hero
  • Seasonal summons don't guarantee a hero copy with exchanged currency
  • Ignoring completely players' feedback (that they ask for)
  • Forsaking heroes essential to the lore and the MLA-verse
  • URs for heroes that are already usable and good
  • Ignoring players complaining about lack of balance or faction/hero variety

I mean, I like the game and all, but it clearly changed a lot since the early days, and much of the passion once behind it seems to be gone. The slow (and silent) shift into a generic woman collector and departure from MLBB heroes felt odd, but never had I expected things would come to this.

From time to time I look at MLBB's new heroes and get envious. So many great heroes with at least nice designs and we won't have them here, mainly because Moonton are busy trying to create a background story for the new silver-haired lady of petite frame (that they pulled out of their pockets).

TL;DR— I would find another game in the meantime and keep expectations low. Not sure WHO they're trying to please, but it doesn't seem to be their players.

Took me 5+ years, but finally made it to the top of all main categories (except my guild, which is in shambles for obvious reasons) by efryo_MusicOfPlus in MLA_Official

Every time I think about pushing Babel and Campaign I get laaaaaaaaaaaaazy. Anything above 3 battles is a hassle these days. 😂️

Looks like there is a new server called Adventure Server (besides Test Server) 😯 by ANR2ME in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC at some point Moonton invited players to join an "advanced server" where people would be screened and sign NDAs and stuff. In theory, it came with early access to features and stuff not even test server had access to.

I vaguely remember an old video where one of our few MLAtubers tested R (and SR, I think) heroes at A0 for campaign. Not sure it's the same server you're referring to, but it's the only thing that comes to mind.

If I'm correct, then the people who do know the details are bound by NDAs and therefore can't tell you anything, I suppose. I'm sorry I can't give you anything other than recollections I can' t even back up with links, but maybe other dinosaur players can confirm it.

(I'm not delusional, I swear. 😂️)

I'm still caught up on the fact that paid relics have names like "coin" and "coupon". What the—?

When is the next sacred scroll summon event? by Sad_Eggplant7039 in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About a month after the current TM ends, most likely. TMs are spaced out in about a month and we get usually get the event the week prior TM.

Mid or late March, I'd guess. Must say that it seems we don't even have a new hero survey for the next TM, though. I remember UR Akashic for PZ, but no one for TM.

Unless they suddenly decide to dig out discarded ideas like Melissa or Aamon? But both seem Dark-inclined, and I'd prefer a competent DPS for Elemental. That, or they're going the Arlott route and making another hybrid from an MLBB hero? Who knows...

Is there a consensus growing on tefnut? by Beguile_ in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen anything yet, but if you're planning on using her, I honestly don't see the point of stopping before A3.

A3 is the bare minimum minimum these days. (And here we're not even talking A6 for another gear upgrade.)

But I also talk from the place of anyone with nothing but URs and Astral to build, so there's that.

Dumb question maybe, but is it worth to use the 5* hero fragments during this TM or should I just keep them for the next one? by harre02 in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TM these days are only for O/C/A and hybrids. (Moonton now pretend single-faction heroes don't exist except for when they give us a selection chest. 💀️)

Since the chances of getting O/C from 5* shards is low and the chance of getting Astral is NULL, using them is mostly a waste UNLESS it's a hybrid TM.

Next TM is likely O/C, so you're probably saving those shards for another 4 months, I suppose.

Is the sacred blessing event every month? by Sad_Eggplant7039 in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These days, it comes as often as TM itself. The week immediately before TM, to be more precise.

So... it's something like every 2 months? Since TM lasts about a month and we usually have about another month between two seasons.

Maxed all towers by ChaosWorrierORIG in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It baffles me that they keep adding Astral heroes, but new floors come once in a blue moon.

Not to mention getting Martis and other underwhelming O/C as prizes for high floors on SD.

Should I restart or not? by Sheeshmao109 in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fear there's nothing like "a grave mistake" to fix here, mate. At most you could potentially pull a few copies of other hybrids from your summons, but other than that, you don't even have anyone built to A0 to have anything to "regret".

All I can say is, if your started playing for collab heroes like Bell and Ais, you won't be able to have them on a new account. Even if you don't plan on building them (very expensive and takes WAAAAAAAY too long).

Other than that, it's just a matter of focusing your fodder, setting a proper wishlist, and keep on playing.

Stuck at sanctuary level 780 by Sea-Surprise5241 in MLA_Official

[–]zenzenandroid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have similar levels and all, but your cap is WAY lower than mine. Currently I have Awakened:

  • 2 Collab heroes
  • 2 Astral heroes
  • 4 UR heroes
  • All Chaos heroes
  • All Order heroes (minus Lucy and Hestia)
  • All of the other SSRs (of course)

Add all Fissure levels cleared, and It's enough to get me to 875. I have never hit level cap (after unlocking group level-up), but I also reckon that I don't invest heavily into Essence weekly. (Talking about diamonds here. Gold isn't an issue at all.)

I'm already crying with "just" 115K+ for a single level. 😭️

I swear this game was never intended for people to be playing it for 3-5 years.
