Possibly lul. I wish there was some zoom in feature for when they move around the map. I do wish I can see the chibi figures in action past on-board the colossus

The lottery box in Cherino's event is sooooooo tempting me to burn pyroxene for 6x AP refresh.

Oh right, swapping has no meaning here lol.

Thank you for this, just reached this stage and was confused as to how I could finish it within the required turns.

Oh that's great, I don't play mobile games to use my brain meats. I R the dumb.

Speaking of low IQ... ever since the introduction of Fire Emblem Heroes real-time PVP, there's been a drop/lag hack going around that forces you into a loss.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/204447-fire-emblem-heroes/79851091

And this is just the two incidents I bothered to screenshot, I've encountered it dozens of times overall on the climb to 1,500 favor. To think there's people out there so stupid and bad they can't even beat *me*.

I messed up my Chesed Hardcore run, chose Forfeit instead of Restart, and lost one assault ticket as a result.

It hurts when the attempt isn't consistent at all.

Damn, that sucks. At least you only lost 100 coins, with consistent hardcore clears i figure that's pennies?

That extremely lucky pull I made yesterday really made Chesed a complete joke. One team to clear the road and do one defense break on Chesed, then team 2 destroys Chesed.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/4/8/3/AAZs-EAACzUT.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/4/8/4/AAZs-EAACzUU.jpg

I should probably check if I'm strong enough for a 1 group clear later, but my current set-up is already a very consistent safe clear.

Yaaay pulled Tohru off the freebie. Also the preview lets you play all the dragons in a single team. Man Fafnir kinda sucks lol. I thought his thing does something else. Turns out it only changes tiles that the enemy is standing on. God these skill descriptions kill me

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/1/5/AAZs-EAACzUz.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/1/6/AAZs-EAACzU0.jpg

Chesed Hardcore 1 group clear. No tanking, all healing is done by Midori and she can't heal herself, so this a very risky group and I gotta be ready to wipe out enemies immediately on spawn. Close to timeout, too.

Well, I guess it's worth it, because if I screw up, a second group can finish the fight or I could restart.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/1/7/AAZs-EAACzU1.jpg
Looking at top rankers, the #1 is using exactly my team, except with Iori for more boss single target damage.

RNGesus blessed me on the Tohru banner and kicked me in the balls repeatedly on the Kanna one. I mustve done at least 7-8 pulls and I got Kanna once, and no Elma. Compared to the other one

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/2/2/AAPV5JAACzU6.jpg

My team is Iori - Tsubaki - Nonomi - Maki (will change to Junko I guess) - Kotama - Serina.
Then 2nd team is the twins - Junko (here goes Yuzu I guess) - Neru - Hanae - whoever (Utaha or Yoshimi).

Even en-route to the boss it can go awry. Basically, before I use Tsubaki, Nonomi must have her skill at the start or say goodbye to everyone. I fed up and just take the L by bringing Tsubaki.

Perhaps should've make the twins go first with Tsubaki then Iori can do the cleanup later.
If Iori goes first then by the time I get to Chesed and it opens up, Iori can only put one EX to it.

Also how to Neru.
She's literal paper.

Maki is not good on Chesed, I feel. High cost, single target, cant utilize paintball buff.

I don't know Neru, but isn't she a dps tank? If she doesn't help your team, feel free to replace her.

Maybe using Kotama is good on boss team and Yoshimi on the cleaning team?

If your Hanae is 3*, maybe use her+saiba+iori on boss team.

Maaaaaaaybe experiment with....

Cleaner: Tsubaki, Nonomi, Yuzu, X ; Yoshimi, Serina
Boss: Saibas, Iori, Y ; Kotama, Hanae

X or Y maybe Junko, Mutsuki, Akari. Reds need good gear+skill levels but both are very strong.
On this raid, you only need a tank if you can't kill enemies quickly.

Gotta try your recs, just mock battled and still managing it. Unfortunately I am on the slow side of killing things.

I hate those turrets. They deal splash huge dmg and it is always Midori who got the short end of sticks when my heals/AoEs aren't available.

Neru is paper because she has no def stat to speak of. If enemies got through her evasion then she can go down faster than she can said oraoraora

Skill deals quite hefty pts, though

Mist Train Girls X finally has an app version.

Clan Battle and (thank god) Triple Normal Drops in PriConne starting today. Take your three whacks at the bosses and get your equipment grinding done while you can. If there's ever a time to spend some gems on 3-6 stamina resets a day, it's now.

Also in PriConne news, the second season of the anime just premiered this past Monday. It was very fun and very comfy.

Hmm... I wonder if a cache cleaner would help me get back some storage space. I've never tried using one for my phones before.

Definitely. I occasionally clear mine up to remove leftover crap gacha games leave for no reason. Most seem fairly good at getting rid of old things though.

Also, Arknights anniversary starts tomorrow so prepare for a banner with the best 6* and worst 6* on it!

Also, use your recruitment tags as they are getting reset with new units being added, and if you spend money then might want to buy any of the "double OP" offers on first buy as those are getting reset as well (apparently) Good luck to any pulling for the bikini god.

I've been going through some stuff. Basically cut down on my gacha and gaming content overall, just focusing on Azur Lane for now. But I'm downloading Arknights. I remember trying it before and being annoyed by the lack of QoL features. But I love the gameplay, so we'll see if I can stick with it again. Hopefully the anniversary doesn't disappoint

It's had some QoL lately but still things that could be improved. Depends what QoL you need I guess, or what was missing that was an issue before.

Yeah, I noticed back when I was forced to reinstall Dragon Raja some months ago that the size dropped by nearly 2GB, but I didn't think it realistic to reinstall *everything* in the hopes of getting space back so wondered if there was a more viable method.

i cant wait to blow my load for Chen Alter and get nothing

Well, despite my storage space issues, I managed to squeeze Alchemy Stars in. Apparently I must have pre-registered for it because I had bonus mails waiting for me along with other stuff.

No idea what I'm working with after all my fresh account pulls, but I got Lucoa, and that's what counts.

There is another free 10 pull like next week I think. But if you do the story, you should have plenty of pulls you can do.

Most of the dragonmaid chars are probably optimal with one more dupe for each of them. It gives them all preemptives, which allows you to use them turn 1, which is generally great. They're all also really good early game where you can actually kill stuff with active damage.

I'd recommend the story despite some slowish start but you probably have far too many gachas to juggle for such a thing lol

Also holy crap, you started with Eicy and Faust. They're pretty much core of every fire team. You just need those 2 and you can use just about anybody you want. Tohru highly recommended

Aside from this other 10 free pull, it sounds like there's a *5 Dragon Maid selector from collecting some kind of event item? Silly me, I could have gotten Lucoa that way and used everything else I had trying for Kanna. That's what I get for jumping straight to recruit before reading all the notices. (I did get a Lucoa dupe too though.)

But now Tohru is a more appealing prospect if I'm really that loaded for a fire team, and I could potentially get Elma for free as well. Honestly I want all of them (it's why I started playing afterall), I just wanted Lucoa and Kanna first.

Oh yeah, still have this other selector from my mail. Choices say Nemesis/Barton/Maggie/Sikare.

Yeah they're cross converters. Basically creates a crapload of their element's tiles in a cross shape, generally a late game necessity because bursting with a big board is almost always better than just converting a few at a time and relying on luck.

Maggie is good, but generally Barton and Sikare are considered more valuable. I'd say you can hedge your bet a bit and just go Sikare so that one day you can get a great base to use Lucoa. Forest is considered the best element with some debatable match ups favoring other elements, so it wouldn't be too hard to get other pieces of the overall team.

Just go for whoever looks good though. You have Eicy and Faust, so you can rely on them in terms of meta and just pull whoever you like more

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/5/8/AAZs-EAACzh-.jpg

And did yesterday's mock battle 1 team clear with a ticket.
Characters at critical hp again, so luck and fast use of skills important for this team.

I guess next raid may be Hieronymus?

What's with the new Operation Siren thing? Instead of exclamation points over ports where you can accept missions, now it says "New". Also I visited all those new ports and not a single one had missions :<

Oh wait, I see now. There's that daily missions tab next to the META showdown button. This is a huge improvement so I don't have to go looking for those certain ports, then actually enter them and move a ship to it.

What the on earth, GT is collabing with Slayers lmao. It's an old ass series that's I think still continuing today. This series always bothered me with the liberal use of = in their character's names. The hell am I supposed to do with so many =s everywhere

Man I've never even heard of Slayers but I don't like that old school anime look. That might be one of the few collaborations that I actually willingly skip.

YugiNoob posted...

It was an anime that aired around the same time as Record of Lodoss War.

Basically, Record of Lodoss War is what people want their D&D game to be and Slayers is what happens when they actually play D&D.

It's an old but still popular anime somehow. Dota 2 tried to name a character Lina Inverse but got sued and now she's just Lina.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/5/7/1/AARLwzAACzlT.jpg

I am betting this collaboration has something to do with the JP release. Like maybe doing this was one of the clauses written in the contract.

got Chen Alter at 171 pulls, after Skalter dodged me this feels good

Managed to get Ch'en in 60 pulls, including the free ten pull, so pretty happy. 80k originum saved up for Nearl's Alter now, so plenty of time to get more to hopefully get her in several months.

Only 3 copies of La Pluma though, as while got several other 5* they were all other units. Nice to get their dupes up though I guess, even if not for units I usually use.

I used up my tickets so I think that was 37 or 47 and am still Chen-less :<

I have enough for 30 more pulls I think before I would need to dip into OP

Also does anyone have any suggestions for a good turn-based RPG? Ive tried so many, but have quit for one reason or another. Epic 7 was fun but there was too much to do and arena was a pain. Knights Chronicle was also okay until netmarble ripped me off.

Gonna try League of Pantheons. Nice art, but Im worried because its another Google Translate game, and so far my theory has never let me down

Also, whats with Robot Tactics? Google (and some other sites) says it came out yesterday, but the download button in the app store is the redownload one (a little cloud with a down arrow), which indicates that I played it before. But I certainly didnt play and delete it yesterday lol

Oh wait, the new one is Robot Tactics X <_<

I assume you mean a phone/gacha game? Not a clue about those at least, I'm afraid.

I can probably recommend you a decent non gacha turn based rpg if you want. Every turn based gacha I've ever played devolves into a hell of power creep and money grabbing. The only one I thoroughly enjoyed was Mobius Final Fantasy which I played all the way until EOS.

As long as its playable on an iPhone :3

Ughhh I have no idea what's on iPhone let me look and see what I can find

Have you tried Another Eden? That's a turn-based RPG from one of the guys who worked on Chrono Trigger. I don't know if it's on iOS though.

Yeah, I didnt really care for it.

There's 4 of these games and a 5th is on the way pretty soon. They're not huge time investments and are pretty cheap overall.

I recommend playing them in order because going backwards is a little rough.

I always pick waifus over meta, but I still try to be sensible regarding gameplay mechanics overall.

Like, there's certain battles in some games where you just can't use your favorites very well because they'll be hard-countered by the enemy composition, so you need to have multiple teams for dealing with those situations.

This is 100% accurate, lol.

But man now I feel old, I haven't seen those series in years, and one of them is actually getting a collab. Wonder if Naga or Filia are options.

I was looking more into regular rpgs. The two biggest things I look for are art and gameplay. Im a simple man; I just like generic (non-old school) anime waifu art lol. And in terms of gameplay Im mainly just looking for standard pick an attack > pick a target kinda thing

Oh yeah, I found out that the game that was copied actually copied another game lol
