Managed to pull Ksana Siris on Snowbreak. She's so precious for being so goddamn stacked. Her gameplay is honestly a massive breath of fresh air. She's literally just a goddamn juggernaut, and she does a gazillion damage to boot. I wonder if she will be viable but for now, I'm kinda scared cuz she might just replace my pretty stacked (stat wise) Hush Fritia.

Finished the story but the writing is a little rough. It throws around a lot of terms still, and I feel like there aren't enough exposition for little things like who the fuck was the idol girl and what happened to the guy after he got shipped off. Marian suddenly gets a very small focus out of nowhere, and Siris' past isn't even adequately explained. It's all a bit confusing to me.

She seems really good and might be one of the top DPS from what people are saying. I'm saving up more digicash and tickets before pulling for her and her weapon. I'm also gonna get Katya and her weapon.

The thing I regret is not being active on the game at the times 5 star Haru had her banner. From everything I know she would've been my true main in the game. Melee character that uses a blade. I really fucking hope they rerun her again this year. Would be nice if they did something in the anniversary to let us get any limited 5 stars.

They put out rerun banners for old characters on a regular rotation. Haru's banner has already been rerun about twice now. The next one shouldn't be too far off. I stopped playing the game since the end of the last event, so I'm not keeping up on where the old character banners are at.

Yeah I've noticed. I missed out Haru's initial run and rerun. They reran Tess last event and now they're doing Katya. I'm hoping Haru gets another rerun this year. And the other exciting thing is that they would likely release a premium skin for her along with her banner. Which I'm definitely paying up for.

Arknights global is finally getting those KFC skins and furniture set we saw way back to around when the global server launched. They will be available from a web page event starting on June 2nd.

All the KFC branding has been removed in favor of "Rhodes Kitchen"

Edit: Looks like two of the skins and the furniture set are tied to merch purchases. That sucks but I think the KFC skins were tied to food purchases at KFC stores in the other regions so it kinda makes sense.

Is Limbus Company worth playing?

Yooooooooo

Magia Record JP apparently announced EOS today. JP will get a archival update on July 1, and it will also have a code to transfer the account to Magia Exedra, which was announce earlier this year.

Don't know if Exedra will have a global release, I'd assume Aniplex would be wary of it due to Record not performing well enough.

I don't think anyone who really played MagiReco US here transitioned to JP servers (I didn't, though I didn't start tracking these topics until after MagiReco US closed down IIRC), but figured I'd mention it here anyways.

Finally our favourite pyromaniac lab experiment child is getting the clothes she deserves

So I pulled 3 for fun on the Ksana 100 pull guarantee banner to build up the meter. Uhh... I ended up just getting the 0.1% and pulling another one of her lmao. Now I have her on M1.

She's insane. I don't even have her fully built, and she's like vastly outdamaging anything else I have by a ton.

Damn, Trails of Cold Steel had me thinking it was going to be nice at first

What were you expecting?

A free infinite reroll banner to start with. I can't think of any games offhand with paid reroll banners to start with like that.

I'm not sure what all of that means, but I vaguely recall it being a common practice in Fate/Grand Order to make accounts until you get one with starting pulls you like.

Yes, that's called rerolling, a common practice in nearly every gacha. But making an infinite reroll banner a premium amenity, let alone having it cost over $20, is ridiculous.

That is more expensive than Reverse Collapse, lmao.

So after its two-day maintenance, D4DJ Groovy Mix had a massive update that introduced a lot of new features. Some of these new features are really good (like the daily growth lives for powering up characters beyond their normal limits) but they're also going to make dailies take a bit longer. Because of that extra time investment D4DJ will need and the fact that Assault Lily Last Bullet has honestly been kinda meh so far, I'm already thinking of uninstalling Assault Lily. I'll give it a couple more days before I decide for sure though.

Wait did you pull her from the 0.1 the first time or did you reach the 100 pull hard pity

0.1% in 3 pulls. But then I lost a built up pity from her weapon banner, so it kinda evened out. I knew I couldn't keep winning these low %s forever. I'm gonna stick to the guarantee banners from now on.

It's just smarter, like much much smarter

No you said you pulled her in a previous post which would be the first time you pulled her. I'm asking about that time.

Oh yeah I got her on the 71st pull out of 80. Won the 50/50. And then I pulled her on the 3rd pull in the guarantee banner

Oh. Why didn't you go for the guarantee banner straight away lol

I was already 40/80 from the last banner. I didn't want to waste it. I heard her event weapon is basically equal to her gacha weapon so I'm actually not that mad about losing the 50/50 there. I was like 60/80 on the weapon

Ah I see. I'm just saving up more tickets and digicash before pulling for both her and her weapon and same for Katya.

I had to uninstall Slime Isekai Memories. I just couldn't take how often the game would crash. Also something bugged me about how the ads were 75 seconds rather than just 30 :<

Still rerolling for scythe girl in Trails of Cold Steel, but the translation is kinda weird. Like that blonde chick's name... is it Iseria or Iselia? It keeps jumping back and forth lol

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/8/8d83bf0d.jpg

What in the how did my aweken fail, and how did someone get put on my Arena defense team when I havent unlocked Arena <_<

You failed. Now you must defend yourself in a fight to the death

God dammit, why did I spend so long rerolling if I had to fight for myself :<

Woot the game wants to apologize for its weird glitches and gave funny rabbit girl on my first pull

I'd still say that Reverse 1999 x Pizza Hut is even stranger.

I dunno, Ive never seen just a chip brand collab with games. Like there have been fast food stuff like Arknights x KFC, or Azur Lane x Pizza Hut, or hell, Genshin x Pizza Hut lol

Wait, what the hell? I may just be stupid, but these questions are unusually hard for one of these anime rip off games. Usually theyre some no brain questions that any second grader could get (granted some are like how many stars are on the American flag or how many fingers does Mickey Mouse have). Also, did Beethoven really compose 45 piano concertos? Because that was the correct answer, but Google is giving me different results.

Anyone play SNK All star brawl? I know it's an idle autobattler but itching for something new and sometimes they have charm lol. Just sucks there's little to no info on terms of good units or anything online

Somehow harder than Yugioh Master Duel's Proficiency test questions (they want to know if a man that looks like a mushroom is named "Mushroom Man #1")

Well now that I heard of it I'll try it lol. I thought it was a fighting game since the video in the app store only shows the health bar and characters doing their ultimate. And I try to avoid fast-paced games on mobile since it's hard to control on a tiny iPhone 13 mini :<

I think there was KoF all stars or something that was a side scroller action game. But SNK All Star Brawl is a generic idle party auto battler like I said.

Wait, who's the publisher (or developer, I get them mixed up)? On the Google Play store it says INFINITIES, on the App Store it says Jiu Zun Hu Yu Entertainment Technology, and Reddit says Nuverse <_<

Oh yeah, but I think I got it mixed up with another game. Not All Stars though, since that's netmarble, and any game I see with their name on, I instantly NOPE out.

Those questions are just ripping off Google randomly.

...makes me remember of a quiz in Rockman Dash/Megaman Legends 2 where there are hundreds of questions, yet between those hundreds, ONLY ONE QUESTION is about the effin game itself.

In front of you giving those bizarre questions is an incredibly sexy (albeit blocky because PS graphics) teacher with low-cut, tight, short hem, one-piece dress that's seemingly worthy of a doujin scenario where you cannot concentrate on remembering the answers to the questions because you ogled at the teacher few seconds too long (I did, despite the blocky graphics).

I got Mai on my first pull :D

Also I need to enter the Unerdround Arena lol

Siris Snowbreak

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/c/c0117dfc.jpg
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/7/799d2656.jpg
She's pretty damn good. I got a fairly high build on her but I was outputting insane dmg and doing all the tanking at the same time

Looking back on footages, the game has some pretty underrated visuals. I think it's a bit grindy still, but Siris alone made this game so freaking fun to play. She doesn't outdamage Katya, but I don't really think she needs to. When the time comes and the game starts having bosses that actually threat killing glass cannons, it's pretty obvious which unit will come out on top. Even in this multiplayer boss battle, I was the only one with sizable HP. The other 2 were struggling to stay alive

Nice. Show your build for her.

I have the event weapon at max limit break and grinding for a good logistics. Middle one at +15 though

At Manifestation 1 and halfway through the 2nd.

I'm looking for logistics with +hp and +atk or Alignment

It's a good time to come back in and save up your BC. This patch is an A-rank character, the next patch is an amplifier (physical amp. Alisa: Echo, so Liv: Luminance's replacement) you can get for free through shard farming, and then there's a whole gauntlet...

-Cradle Parade has the new dark team attacker Lamia
-Then the Black Rock Shooter collab. You get your first copy of BRS for free. Dead Master gets added as a permanent boss later.
-Aeon Reforged has Watanabe's new fire tank frame that replaces the clunky Mechanami.
-Polaris Bond gives a new omniframe version of Qu, who replaces Lucia: Plume on the ice team (finally, the ice team doesn't suck anymore)
-After all of those S-rank patches, we finally get a break with Polaris Bond and get A-rank Teddy.
-Luna's new frame is in the patch after that. New element and class.
-After Luna's patch, we finally get Bridget as a playable character (A-rank)

I heard some of the subreddit ppl didn't like the change. I see some footages of it, and it doesn't seem like as big of a change as some mentioned? The heavenhold does seem much emptier though. Not sure if that's an improvement
