In 130 pulls I got C.Kotori, S.Miyako, Hifumi, Mine, D.Hina, C.Shiroko, Ichika, C.Serina, Haruna, C.Hare, Midori, P.Yuuka, and another duplicate I can't remember. No Rio or the other 2 rate up characters
I can probably squeeze out another 25-40 pulls in the next 2 days, if I don't get Rio I think I'll just uninstall

>>531926185I gave her consent
Question. Two questions. From a steam-only newfag.
1) Can someone explain about Specialists? Like, i get it, they use skills from backline. But their stats? How their stats work? I assume they getting added to the Strikers, but no way its 1 to 1. Is it (Specialist+Specialist)/4 or something like that?
2) Upgrading weapons. If i'll have two same characters (x and x[swimsuit]) - they both use same weapons, obviously. But i'll have to upgrade their weapons individually? Or upgrading shared between same characters? How this works?
>>531925927 (OP)So now that it's over, what are your thoughts about this event?

Hifumi loves hugs very much.
>>531927020Yes. They get added to a thing where you can replay them in game and get the welfare after a bit. You can get a lot of pyros starting out by doing the story and missions.
>you need UE60 for S.Mika
No, you don't. For the same reason why Hikari is weaker while buffing Mika. She already a shitton of purple effectiveness. Adding 10% more to that big is like upgrading her hat from T9 to T10.

>>531927420Good job Chise
>>531927080btw this is a joke lost in translation
I'm not sure you can localize it properly...maybe
So, what Aris said in JP at least was "Yatta ka...?" which literally means "Did (we) do it...?" but the thing is, it's a flag for "no, we didn't, and the enemy is completely unharmed or otherwise still standing" (hence Midori, who is meme-certified, going ARIS NO)
I really don't know what I'd translate it as.
Other than, not "Did I kill her?"

But I don't know about the follow-up keigo line
>>531927373it sounds like UE60 is mainly for specials, which is like
"giving you people an excuse to stop sitting at UE40 on specials"
Do we have a similar thing already in the game of "10% difference"? Like bonus stats, maybe? I'm wondering how much I need to worry about UE60 on JP

>>531927482honestly I dont mind this trannyslation. Aris to that moment was rather blunt and "matter of fact" .She had some out-of-pocket lines prior to that aswell. To the point where I was like "jup, thats such an Aris line"

How efficient is to maximize or UE50/60 your favorite student when raid/bosses can complicate it or get less rewards or plat?
>>531928204They can't keep getting away with it

>>531928156My wife is the coolest
what does the battlepass include
>>531928373according to that image reports, BDs, paid version has higher rarities plus Mika furniture
>>531928373you fuck Mika on the bed
>>531928282from what I'm generally understanding...
UE60 should not be too much of a game changer for strikers, which means raids should be fairly safe for now. It might be a noticeable game changer for specials, but we'll have to wait and see. If 1 and 2 star students ever get mood sunglasses for an environment, it might also be worth it for them (I doubt they ever will, though, which sucks)
UE50 is a huge deal when it counts. It adds the aforementioned sunglasses, which is basically "perfect mood" for an environment. This gives an enormous boost to damage and to cover effectiveness, so typically if you have a raid that relies on DPS, having the core DPS at UE50 is necessary to plat the raid on competitive servers

Using your gamer knowledge, how would you get out of this situation?

Thoughts on our next anniversary students, Kuzunoha and Shuro?
>>531928282>>531928681also I didn't answer your question
it's never efficient to maximize your favorite student at least if your favorite isn't meta
like mine: Kirino
but I still will UE60 her first
I don't have Satsuki or sShiroko and I'm trying to clear Insane. Could I clear with a borrowed Satsuki and use sFubuki or Nagisa in place of sShiroko? The most I've been able to do is get Geburah down to about 27 million but I'm pretty sure I just have a shit rotation.
>>531928282Realistically outside of JP and Korea it won't matter so you can continue collecting your plats with UE40 Mika.
>>531927723Calculator says UE50 -> UE60 is gonna be maximum 4% damage increase.

I don't know. You get a lot slower without SShiroko of course. Well, question--do you have Hibiki? Because that's kinda what matters the most.
I THINK you basically should be able to, and that Nagisa is likely better than using SFubuki (Nagisa is lower cost). One problem though: Nagi has a defense debuff, meaning you'd need to take that into account if you bring SKanna (basically, you have to use SKanna after using Nagisa, otherwise Nagisa's shitty debuff will replace Kanna's)
Hibiki is your "best" cleanup student after using Satsuki

Valkyrie summer didn't introduce anyone new other than SRabu

What do you think about artists adding watermarks to their art to stop AIs from using it as reference? Do those even work?

>>531929695That's what Mika is for tho
>>531929597>Do those even work?No. Lazy fucks will train their models with watermarked shit and get watermarked results, or slightly less lazy fucks use a tag to filter watermarks out of the results. If you really want to mess with AI gen you should run it through a filter that screws with the AI trained on it first.
>>531929870No fuckin' way they'd release Konoka but hey, true, I completely forgot her
>>531929829That's not saying much. Volume 1 is the epitome of mid. That being said, I wouldn't really say that Volume 2 is that good. It has some seriously retarded writing in the second half, and the first half is mostly just kinda boring.
>>531929671oh I forgot to answer your question. Yeah, I also have Hibiki. I just assumed Nagi and Fubuki were better as I had not seen anyone else mention Hibiki for this raid. I suppose I'll try with her next. If I can just get down to about 15 million HP left I should be able to use my cleanup teams at least. But I absolutely loathe body throwing beyond four teams.
>>531928843The comic where some Trinity mob throws a grenade into Mika's room and it accidentally kills sensei was unintentionally funny
>>531929551how about pajama yuuka
>>531930130Hibiki is afaik the best second pick. I don't know who would be better, at least? SKarin is too expensive and no Nagisa has wimpy damage.
With my 24k pyros, I got Neru and Rio from regular pulls. Hanako on pity. Also pulled several 3-stars like Bunny Asuna and Shiroko*Terror.

Reading past threads it's wild how negative the reaction was to the battlepass announcement
I remember when azurIane announced their BP like 3-4 years after the game had already been out, barely anyone raised a stink over it. This was in 2021 or so, BPs have become even more normalized since then.
Is it just the price people are mad about? I mean I guess 3500 yen is pretty steep of an entry price but we don't know exactly what's in it yet, right?
>>531931974I like Tsubaki's VA more than Tsubaki

>>531931484One visit to expo without any real leadership meetings means nothing. At most it can create some good will. And where are fruits of that visit? Cherino sent Makoto statues and Hyakkiyako happily welcomed a trip from Gehenna in their district. Meanwhile all Seia managed to do was to larp as Solid Snake and become "friends" with a fugitive from Millennium who stole a ton of money from her own school.

Feels wrong to single out volume 2 over this. Same with your complaint over the ruins, they never explain BA lore in depth in any of the volumes

>>531931926Did you know that this isn't just your standard Enter key? There are two predominately utilized Enter keys. ANSI and ISO. ANSI is found on most keyboards these days - and is derived from keyboards in America. It's simply a longer key. For ISO, it's more vertically oriented and this can be found on many European keyboards.
Separate from these two, are the BAE keys (big ass enter). These are a little more rare, but can be found more often in Japanese keyboards, especially in the 80s-90s. It's easily the biggest Enter key of them all, hence the name.

>>531932553The difference is pretty small compared to other lunatics.
>>531931310No shipping, no males, and no yuri, they have a hard time subverting and destroying it like other gacha games
If you're saying "Shucks boys, we need to change, we need those women here with us, we gotta change for them, we need to make the game welcoming for them" then don't, we don't want that. Asking for women to outnumber men playing blue archive, is like asking "WHY don't more men read 50 Shades of Grey, why don't more men read yaoi??? Its just absurd, we need more men in those fandoms". Just accept that things aren't made for everyone. BA at its core will always be an ojisan game.

>>531928843Trying to be a big strong man in kivotos is an excellent way to get raped or otherwise humiliated by the most deranged mobs in the setting
A student who doesn't respect sensei would only comply with him because of the threat of his gorilla simps, and at that point he's calling his big brother(sister) to beat up bullies for him

>>531935360>crafting fodderLooks like a win to me
>>531934985Volume 3 and volume F are considered the best stories in Blue Archive. What do they have in common? Sensei is a core character in both stories and a very active participant the entire way through. He shows why he's necessary for the girls, the game is not blue archive without him.
Volume 2 considered the worst volume, what does it coincidentally have? No sensei, he plays no role at all in volume 2, he's a non character.'
Sensei being sensei is what makes chapters shine; without him it isn't blue archive, its just a generic CGDC story. Like without sensei you can really taste how generic this story instantly becomes. If you read the group stories in this game, the stories without sensei all basically suck. If you read the anthology manga, stories kinda suck without sensei. He is the one that creates an important perspective in this game guiding the girls, and being responsibility man. Without him the girls never really shine properly, he's the one that brings their greatest virtue out of them.

>>531935360We don't know what's in it yet, at the absolute worst it's crafting fodder for whales so it ultimately doesn't matter much for F2Ps
Cherino is about to get her vocal chords extracted as a form of correction in a matter of days btw.
>>531935518There's nothing wrong with generic CGDCT
>>531934969No one ever held any resentment towards Mika; she's the only one in this game who ever suffered for her actions, and the end of volume 3 shows that almost everything you were told about her actions early on was a lie.
>>531935518>Volume 3 and volume F are considered the best stories in Blue Archive. What do they have in common? Sensei is a core character in both stories and a very active participant the entire way through.

Sensei is bland whitebread milquetoast whenever he's not messing with a student, molesting the brown ones, or delivering the adult lines. Millenium students aren't retarded enough to need him to hold their hands, which is why he was only needed for the pep talk at the end
>>531935137There's no one Kohar respects more than Hasumi senpai, Kohar could never bring herself to treat Hasumi badly. It doesn't show much in the english version but Koharu is a deeply respectful person, always calling people in her club senpai, always looking up to them, she says senpai almost more than she says their name. And with Mika she's so respectful she can't even bring herself to say her name, thinking its too much for her, their status is too different. She talks shit with the Make up work club since they're the same status, they're all the same class and age, but Koharu is very conceding when dealing with someone above herself that she respects.

I don't think it's just because they're late that's the reason people don't talk much about Azami or Kokuriko or whatever

Hey you!
No skipping Nozomi if you decide to pull Hikari!
We come as a duo.
I'm a new account, I want a healer in the striker slot to use some of my strong special characters comfortably (rio and kisaki).
Is it better to try to hit the current banner with the doubled rates for any one of the various striker healers available in the pool, or to just save for atsuko and try to spark her?
>>531936521Damn its almost like the game is handing you another few thousand gems for free, just to do the same thing again. After you're done with the sanctums the real stuff starts back up.
Its kinda obvious going through volume F that some things were originally raid battles when the chapter first came out.

>>531936440Yeah. Some of the chapters are gated behind other chapters, although I can exactly remember which. I had to go back and read chapter 4 of volume 3 before volume F was unlocked so the order in that anon's post wasn't entirely accurate.

>>531936210It's like Halo, an energy shield that prevents damage and when it runs out they die
Ignore that they take actual damage and even bleed long before their lives are in danger
Also ignore that it seems to be a visual thing and even flickers out when they're asleep and yet they remain bulletproof
Also you need to take everything you read as literally as possible and make no attempts to understand colloquialisms, nuance, or context

I really liked V5.
I don't really have much to say about it that doesn't feel like it's already been said when it dropped on jp and still boils down to just fanwanking over what you think of Kokuriko.
Kinda sad to see it getting bashed though, I liked it, even if I wish V1 had more time spent on the cast. It felt like it was a deliberate design choice to have Sensei dropped into an ongoing story (with the club falling apart and Ayame being gone), I'm just not sure it paid off for most people.

I was never into msgk so I'm skipping Nozomi.
So what is the deal with the sensei doodle? Is it in the story?
>>531937026Yea, but what about design? Is it like MLP cutiemarks or something? Like...Every time i see a new student - i look at her halo first.
What if........
What if..............
What if halo spawns on you with preset design, and then derails your life to fit it? Would be kinda messed up. Like, Hina has very massive big halo. So she got derailed into being a leader. But if we read the campaign then we'll learn that its super-stressful for her and she's barely holding. I dunno. I bet there's SOMETHING i dont get about it. Some obscure knowledge.

You can assume what happens in 90% of them anyway, the point of Blue Archive is to focus on the good and hopeful, not to be bogged down by despair and sadness. A short story of the kids dying over and over, really misses the point of Blue Archive. The point is explicitly to not focus on that sort of thing, to keep things light hearted and to create a happy ending.

>>531936807I assume you mean from a pure design/artwork perspective
For me, it's Swimsuit Kirino, who is so fucking cute, so goddamg fucking cute. Look at her, holy shit
However, if I'm being totally totally objective...hmmmmm
That's where it gets tough
My personal favorites
Kirino, Chise, Izuna, Fubuki, Hiyori, Hoshino, Koharu, Shizuko, Seia
No particular order other that #1 Kirino
I think the objective best swimsuits are these:
Hoshino, Koharu, Seia. I honestly think Seia's swimsuit ourable but also arousing, and maybe, just maybe, Hoshino is objectively the best. I feel like this is tough to say with certainty.
Honorable mention to Hiyori who in my opinion has the most arousing swimsuit alt.
>>531938253If you actually cared about meta then you need both of them for torment and lunatic.
>>531938598Read volume1 Ch3

>>531939541is that how much a full spark costs?
>>531938604What they're saying is that he's different from him, not that the halo is the thing that makes them bulletproof. I've seen a lot of redditors who think the girls are normal girls who had some ritual done to them to give them halos, or they were normal girls who have halos equipped after coming to kivotos, but neither is correct. The girls always had halos. During chapter one they tell you that sensei isn't from kivotos, which is why he doesn't have a halo, Blacksuit says sensei is an outsider in this world just like himself. Something that doesn't belong here, someone who came to this world to protect the children.
Even the dog people and robot people in kivotos get shot all the time, and are fine seconds later. They're nowhere near as strong as students, but they're still relatively bulletproof compared to sensei. In Kirino's momotalk she shoots the same dog guy like four times.
Sensei is something that doesn't belong in this world, he's too weak to survive something that everyone else considers a joke.

>>531939249>i don't know why someone would instantly jump to Halo shieldsIn volume 3 GrumpyOne tells to GrumpyTwo that halo protects from lethal damage. But you can bruteforce death anyway, by pushing halo over its limits by dealing more and more damage. Same goes for hunger, for example, or heat/exhaustion. Halo will keep you alive until it get tired, and then you die. It was literally said in the chapter, basically word-for-word.

Nozomi is Tiphareth core, however you could theoretically borrow her.
Thing is, you're more likely to want to borrow DSaori or something
>>531939710The right answer is Kisaki since double the Kuroko EX means she dies twice as fast.
>>531940236Depends on how much it costs.
If it makes more sense to just buy pyro packs there's no point in buying the bp just for the pyros.
>>531940160nothing bland about that tummy
Moshi moshi /bag/ so it's safe to skip Nozomi?
>>531940236if it gives a decent amount, then yes
>>531939986You're misunderstanding what was said slightly
Shattering the halo is the true death for students; its not that halo protects you, its more that halo is the health bar, it shows how close you are to death. Students are extremely hard to kill, its hard to shatter a halo. Students are mystics, the halo represents their mystic. The halo doesn't give them powers, the halo just represents their mystic/sublime.
