Also in Alchemy Stars, I've been... stuck at 8-14, the last main story available atm, for several days now. Holy crap this boss is a bitch. Every single move delays your team's cooldowns, so if you get hit once, you're prone to getting mired in a middle of nowhere. The boss takes up a 3x3 in the center, which usually isn't bad cuz 3x3 bosses are easy to damage, but he's also got a ton of hp... and when he dies he splits into 2 2x2 bosses that also delay and are now even harder to avoid being damaged by. To make it worse, they seem to have just as much HP as the first boss. But the 2x2 split into 2 1x1 bosses that delay the least cd unit by 3 turns for every hit, which pretty much cripples you, but because there are 4 of them on the field, they're very hard to avoid. But on top of that, the 4 combined seem to have as much hp as the 1st boss, but it's even harder to kill them because they only occupy 1x1, which makes your AOE hard units far less good

Also their element is water, and I haven't built a single lightning unit to acceptable standards. So I've trained up Michael to be asc 2 lvl 50, which the req says asc 2 lvl 30... that's complete bullshit. Michael can do a hella damage but her skill isn't a low cd board changer, so the skill delays and the shitload of damage makes me succumb

Would it have killed them to maybe give me like 2 more turns if they're gonna spam skill delays on me?

Yeah the difficulty gets pretty ridiculous. They really need to balance things out. I wish I had gotten farther into the game before I did the survey so I could've mentioned it :<

Welp as soon as I made the post, I guess the next few more levels to my team actually went and did it. I beat the boss with literally 1 turn left. Michael is a freakin goddess. But it might be some time til I can 3* it.

Luckily, the last Colossus upgrade item is not locked to 3* so huzzah, I guess I gotta do the Colo upgrade stuff for a while >.>. But at least it'll speed up some aspects of farming, which is why I've been desperate to beat this shit.

Ngl I was gonna dedicate full time to asc 3'ing Carleen but now I think Michael might end up just being first. It just feels so good to use her skill too, like blam, everything in your path is dead

I made a ton of attempts with a ton of diff team comp, but the one that did it was: Michael (asc 2 lvl 50)/Connolly (asc 2 lvl 17)/Victoria (asc 2 lvl 38)/Carleen (asc 2 lvl 36)/Beverly (asc 1 lvl 40). Yeah it has 2 lightning, 1 fire, and 2 water lol. I tried Mono-elements and all sorts of wild shit, and honestly this team was just better. I really only think mono-elem is better when you have like 3 6*s of that element. Most 6*s just do so much utility and damage that they kinda make up for not always being able to attack. Ascending Beverly and Michael and leveling them up a bit will probably let me get 3*s on this, mostly cuz I managed to stay above 50% hp with next to 0 healing.

Man, it's crazy cuz you kinda need both AOE and single target damage. You probably shouldn't carry healing, and you just gotta play massively smart and just spam the shit out of checking the opponent's range. Connolly was also a low key MVP, because the 1x1 bosses can be feared, which means they don't attack and just run away. That ended up being crucial in one of the turns where I had no way to escape unless the fear landed on the small bosses

lol well I got a nice surprise. I was equipping Prinz Heinrich with the recommended gear, and saw that Little Beaver Badge thing. I had no idea what it was, and at the time also had no idea that the game gave rewards for limit breaking certain groups of ships. While I'm sure it's common for people to save one copy of every new ship, it just so happened that all of them were almost level 70 so I could instantly bring them up to 3 stars and get my badge lol. I guess the game has just been choosing them to go out on commissions because they have never seen the light of combat or been placed in the dorm lol

Seems I wasn't the only one having trouble with 8-14 in AS. Just to give a benchmark, I actually 3*ing nearly everything prior to it with less than half the current power of my team in 1-2 tries. Had to few days of just grinding just to even stand a chance, needed a lot of luck just to beat it

I'm really annoyed at how getting 3 stars is gated behind a turn limit, and that there are quite a few ways that the AI likes to stall you out. Plus the fact that you have to get all 3 stars at once. That's just the stupidest thing ever :<

Yeah you need a teleporter and a healer on the team for sure to reduce. Well Philyshy does fill both roles. You prob also gotta have one short board changer and a long but huge board changer and 2 DPS. Usually that'd be enough for every stage, but some bosses will require other things

Oh ho hokay, so people on reddit were crying about Spire 43 in AS. I was like naaah how bad could it be

Oh god. It is as bad as they all say, maybe worse. See, if a boss literally strands you with 0 way to do damage or escape, and their fucking attack range fills the entire map for whatever reason, and they hit like a fucking truck, AND they have a shitload of hp, then at that point really the only way to beat this is to just level up like a goddamn insane person lol

I mean ngl, I actually didn't mind 8-14 cuz it did make me really have to strategize. But this is just like a void of strategy, an anti-design. God I hope this isn't what's in store for this game, or a team full of 2 tile proc and insane turn 1 skills is pretty much gonna be the future.

Bah, my FGO recording failed, for some reason.

Well, FGO GSSR is a disappointment once again.

Iskandar's a dud no matter how you look at it. I did get a rare second SSR, for once, but it was just my fifth Kingprotea. And I'm absolutely swimming in Alter Egos already, so even seeing that card was a resounding meh.

On the flip side, I got Lolivinci in exactly three fucking singles, so my extremely large 4th anniversary hoard will remain relatively untouched in the coming months, as will my wallet (for FGO, at least).

I got zero CEs though. Rolling FP for a bit, Chen Gong and Jason were the first to show up. Charlotte Corday showed up after I did my Lolivinci rolls.

Those asshats said that there was no problem with the Tales From the Deep quest. I think they just don't have a decent grip of the English language and think that "challenge" equates to "complete". Because the way they worded it, I should be able to leave after the first fight and still finish the quest.

Like I said, what counts it is the act of pressing start at the building screen.

You can actually just leave off at the leader select screen and it'll count as being finished

Yeah it's probably like in Tenka where you get to claim some of the days you missed, cuz the daily logins reset when the month goes by. It wasn't available for the last month's share though

Mata Hari is old news.

Charlotte Corday is the new 1* assassin waifu.

Real answer is that 4th anniversary added one low-rarity servant of each class to the FP pool. But don't knock Corday, she's cute too.

Holy fuckamole. In Touhou, I pulled a 3rd Alt Marisa. Only freaking took 60 pulls. What a blessed as fuck account

As to why this is a big deal, this unit is some special ass unit that can only be limit broken by her copies or some special paper doll. This paper doll is only freaking available in a package that's like 80 bucks, which is greed as fuck. Anyways, I slapped their greed in the face by doing it completely f2p and on the one unit I wanted the most

This Tenka beach event gave me so much money and mats that my team can just freaking auto the 50 stam stuff. Unless some fringe AI happens where Iai Strike hits the same target twice, which I've never seen it do so far, I can finally do this even if I run out of auto tickets.

But I still can't beat the first event of the part 3 challenge. Wtf is this shit... It really doesn't help that the boss is light type so my Aiko and Daphne can't survive the random AOE or single targets. Can't defend with them because I need their heals and shields.

Shit also has a bunch of like hidden rules. Like the first floor alone, took me like 10 tries to figure out how Petra's AI works. She will occasionally do some big AOE shit under some set of rules, and it's basically like... if there are 2 other allies left and one of them is below 50% hp, she will immediately try to burst you with the AOE, where guarding through that turn will guarantee survival. She also sometimes seem to use it like in the 3rd or 4th cycle, not sure. You also can't kill her immediately, because she will give your team a status that gives the middle 3 units 10 follow attacks, which you're supposed to use to interrupt 3 of the units when they're trying to curse you. I recommend taking the recov/shield debuffs. Leaving Petra for last also lets you stall nearly forever on her, but it doesn't matter cuz the next floor is ridiculous and has no clear answer like the first floor does

It's interesting, but some fucking clarity and less randomness and overtuned bs would be really nice.

From experience, I have her at asc 2 lvl 50, and she's pretty sick. Her dash is really fun to use and does a lot of damage against big bosses, and her tiles are pretty nice. Pretty great boss character for lightning

Also I think she has a rather odd sense of humor for being emotionless lol. I think sometimes she's just trolling you

Also the early cutscenes and pre A3 arts... basically has her as flat as a board, a clean 180 degrees if you will, but the ch 8 cgs and her A3 art has given her a small upgrade. Just something to note I guess

In other news, Atelier Online Global is available for download on the Play Store, but I'm not sure if the server is actually open yet. I'm also hearing that Ryza and her luscious thick thighs are the free reward that everyone gets from the 7-day starter event, so no need to re-roll for her. I'm still debating whether to try the game out or not (if my phone can even fit the game) but free Ryza thighs makes it very tempting.
