The amount of calendar time you have to sink to improve units is a drag, but being able to borrow strong units from whales then just mash the FF + auto buttons and then walk away except for a couple "go again" confirms means idgaf. I can blow through my daily "commitment" to the game with maybe 5 minutes of actual attention paid, and then it's fully my choice whether I mess around with SU/MOC/whatever or just quit out and play something else. And that's probably as good as you could ever expect from a f2p game like this. King of Bleh fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Jun 20, 2023 |

Holy poo poo. I just got a 4* light cone, a Quinque eidolon and Gepard back to back. I might not pull for Luocha now. Gepard is one of the units I really wanted. Now if I could only be blessed with Pela.

Also the TB 50 grind is real. My traces suck and my relics suck so even level appropriate challenges suck. And it takes nearly a full day if energy to grind out 1 set of ascension mats for 1 character, especially these greedy 5 stars.

We did warn you about that! I'm not too upset about the grind, should have both teams maxed out in a month or so. Once you're over that hump it's probably a big relief.

For the record, things did change massively from cbt2 to cbt 3/1.0 Material fights were daily locked like genshin, relics were 2/4/5 piece bonuses and it was just a straight up 6 relic system.

acumen posted:We did warn you about that! I'm not really upset, just bitching. My main focus is on SU and I'm literally spinning my wheels until the story patch anyway, so I don't really have anything better to do in the game. I may even stall the next equilibrium just so I can get traced out and grind relics before having to do this again. And it lets me pre grind a bit. Also I have narrowed my guys into actual teams so I can focus on one group at a time. Makes it easier knowing today is Sushang's day for instance. Getting Gepard is a blessing actually. As much as I like Serval and Sampo, I may actually like Kafka so now I can bank jade while I decide between the two.

JT Jag posted:This game being turn based and the grinding being trivial to auto is the only reason I started playing in the first place I initially tried it because I was interested in SU, but I've stuck with it largely because the daily grind is so fast and completely painless, yeah. I can burn 18 hours of stamina in roughly 10 minutes, and of that 10 minutes only like 30 seconds of it requires me to be tabbed into the game. Doing the actual daily quests is a sub five minute job and frequently overlaps with burning said stamina. If I feel like playing more I can knock out my SUs or MoC, which require more attention but are weekly or biweekly affairs. Compared to how many other gacha games I've tried where it can take a couple hours per day to keep up with all the chores, it's an enormously better proposition.

Eimi posted:They show V as the last tier so I think 6 purple books for 60 stamina is the best it's ever going to get. Based off subjective feel, it does seem worse to farm the necessary amount of XP. But I think it's balanced by the actual final ascension being *way* easier. Like incomparably easier. Literally less than a day's fuel at EQ6, compared with a large number of full boss fights + wandering around the world picking up multiple respawn cycles of beetles or whatever in Genshin. In the longer term I don't think it will be that bad, though. I spent a while focusing on XP the last couple weeks and, on hitting TR60 a couple days ago, was able to get two characters to 80. The battlepass will probably let me get two more. So I'm sure I'll end up with a big "stable" of level 80 characters over time.

Ibblebibble posted:I mean my other question is what's the trace level for your Clara's ult? In SU especially I find that her health just pingpongs from taking damage then getting healed by passive/Nat healing so that might be what you're missing as well. Outside of SU it's usually March shield/Fireblazer taunt (with ult up) and Nat healing for me. Oh. Yeah, none of my traces were leveled. That was the one thing I kinda skimped on, and now that I hit TB50 I've been catching up on all my traces. The health ping-pong-ing kind of makes sense. That makes her 5* cone from the monthly shop quite valuable, huh. Walla posted:Holy poo poo. I just got a 4* light cone, a Quinque eidolon and Gepard back to back. I might not pull for Luocha now. Gepard is one of the units I really wanted. Now if I could only be blessed with Pela. I just got a random unexpected Gepard off the standard banner too! :highfive: Well you're in luck (or anti-luck?) because Pela is on the Luocha banner. But yeah, Gepard was an unexpected surprise and threw my plans into a loop as well. I have him and Yanqing (even tho I hate him!!!) and am one Pela away from a pretty sick mono ice + SW team. Since Qingque is my long-term goal, next banner is gonna be a good one for me. A shame Luocha has to be on it.

Cao Ni Ma posted:Silverwolf brought me around the idea of building around 2x2 set ups with her and seele making up the core of the quantum portion of it. SW works well in any team which is what I like. Right now I have her with Asta, Sushang and Natasha but that team will be changing once I get Gepard up to speed. Hopefully I can slot Pela in there as well.

Since they extended the museum event, should I just wait to start it after they patch it in 1.2? I finally got back around to playing the main questline and to where I could start it, but I just noticed that it's been extended for another 40-odd days

There's a bug that can make it possible to lock yourself out of rewards, and they won't be able to fix it until a major patch. So if you do it now you either don't encounter the bug and it doesn't matter, or you do and you have wait until the patch to get the rest of your rewards. That's it.

And the only way to encounter the bug is to ignore the actual guidelines given to you and upgrade everything else instead. Like me.

Just got to WL5 and realized I completely forgot to pre-farm the character ascension mats. I guess now is as good a time as any to use a bunch of fuel. I also am going to need about 1000 more purple character exp books.

Also if you're just now hitting the museum event, start farming. Ignore relics, but hit up every stagnant shadow and every Crimson Calyx daily. Just toss them into your normal rotation. Also max out SU and Echoes of War every week. You'll be happy you did in a few more equilibriums.

It's less than a day's worth of energy to farm the ascension mats for 70-80, it's really not worth pre-farming them at lower stamina efficiency. What you'll come to realize is that you didn't pre-farm enough levelling materials.

Less than a day, but that's per character. I definitely wish I had stockpiled a few things. And I actually had to farm for credits. Going broke is a thing.

You get 25% more ascension mats at TL 60 so really it's much more of a waste to pre-farm. And you won't have the exp books to level them anyway so it's not like ascending immediately is necessary.

"do what you want even if it's suboptimal" remains good advice

XP caps out earliest at 50, although I certainly wouldn't recommend only farming XP and money for 10 Trailblaze levels. Ascension and traces both cap out at 60, and relics (including SU and weekly bosses) cap out at 65.

In the long run you will need to farm them for a bunch of characters and also for lower tiers of new characters, so the overflow does actually matter.
