sex with haruka

She's mine

Bnuuy love

Your wife is for you and no one else.
Let's leave it at that, lest we have to get uncivil.

What are the odds that

>Sora is Haruka

WORST SELLING limited banner in the history of the game LMFAO. Probably worse than Pepe.

Dont forget to tune into the livestream to watch the much beloved biannual execution of Zhang Leakerman live on stream

So RA3?

>>532045393
Executing the leaker live on stream is the only way that can make it interesting after this

>>532045365
itll be better than exu's

remember when virtuosa ("cello") was leaked with game data that showed she was a 6* lord guard that could summon the arms of the dudes in the back of her e2 art?

>>532045007
i forgot what it was when scrolling past twatter
what was the other major leak this week thats 100% resulting in someone being guillotined too?

>>532045498
The problem with RA has always been the fact that it is just a jankier version of arknights.

RA is not suitable for newfags

>>532045365
metafags will carry, unlike Shitpe who might as well have a year 1 kit

My soulmate....

>>532045072 (OP)
Shitposts aside, does anyone actually hate that Hoshi is getting an alter, or is it more the circumstances surrounding it? In all my years playing the game, I don't think I've ever seen Hoshi hate.

>newfags
It's newcutie, fag.

Post bears

>>532045670
ye dude
abjurer and arts memefender

>>532045714
Hoshi herself is great
I think people just dont like the art

>>532045630
They added elite pipis since stronghold for newfags to join in these types of content. Sure they may not have yato but they have misery which is likely better than what they actually own normally.

>>532045714
I've never seen Bibeak hate but a Bibeak alt would still make people angry

You guys were so busy shitposting you didn't discuss Goom's design.
Look at her, it's fucking samurai Goom.... it's actually pretty sick.

>>532045714
i love hoshi but her artist sucks

>>532045714
Waste of a limited space is my problem, but that's been the way they've done it for so long now I barely care

doctor, post something leaking

>>532045714
Hoshi alter isn't a problem, her being defender again and the e2 art looking just bad is.

>Get fucked on every last good banners
I'm fucked I'm not ready for this

>>532045714
4 alters in a row + the fact most of the alters are underserved. But then again our first alter was a literal what if type of meme.

Haruka will redeem Abjurers by being the best SP battery in the game

>>532045572
>Melee sankta
that's how you know its bullshit
Sankta are rangedfags Sarkaz are meleetards its part of their dichotomy
Sankta are the civilized nobles using sophisticated weapons to smite their foes and Sarkaz are the barbaric peasants raiding and pillaging with crude scraps of metal.

>>532045916
Cowboy Bikini Samurai...

>>532045895
Bibeak is a good girl and I would be very hyped for her alt

>>532045953
>>532045854
It's messy but I don't think it looks bad

>>532045714
>Ol' Reliable
>Cool shield
>Tall, confident woman
>Likes bikes
>Puts her back into her work
Hoshi definitely isn't the problem. When the worst people can call her is a doormat (and even then, that's incorrect) she's clearly doing something right.

>>532045764
okay?

>make arknights account
>need 3000 rolls to get all the cool characters I want or wait years for that to steadily decrease to like... 2000 rolls
>game gives 25 a month + some extra
>even if you're generous and assume double that from other income it's 50 rolls a month
>can clear all the content just fine, but it doesn't matter because it's not with the characters I want
>borrowing doesn't even matter because that's not my waifu, that's someone else's waifu
Why is Arknights so stingy?

>>532045714
I don't care about Hoshi.
I love Haruka though.

>>532045916
>blue flames galore
>weird blue lines covering her up
>some fucking Oni tableware held up chains covering her up even more
>covered like she's in a fucking Saudi Arabia, but for some reason her whole tummy is the only thing exposed
No.

>Probably worse than Pepe.
Do some people unironically belive in this? Pepe not only was a literal who but her introduction was in an event that many didn't even bother to play. Those who didn't play that or get spoonfed the story about it literally didn't even know about Pepe's existance.

>>532045771
Literally take Silence alt S3 and remove the twice per stage restriction and she is broken as shit
Quercus has a simple unlimited skill and she is one of the best healers in the game

>>532046159
>forgetting the Wrathful Cerulean Flame
baka

>>532045916
I'm rolling, she looks badass.

>>532046045
I dont have any particular qualms with it either
Though i would like ot see a higher res version of the image...

>>532046212
Pepe clearly banked on namie's popularity. There is absolutely no way anybody will care more about arts defender Gooma. Don't let the resident unique snowflakes fool you into thinking she is popular enough to carry.

>>532046212
Narantuya carried and is way hotter than Hoshi

>>532046138
You get 95% of all characters in just 2 years of playing the game.
In 1 year if you buy monthly card.
My CN account is going to be 1 year old this summer event and I already own 80% of all units being f2p.

>>532046348
Those 5% you're missing? It's the 3000 rolls in limiteds I mentioned.

>>532045924
Okay, but consider this: SLA had Eyjaalt (even though there was nothing wrong with Eyja) and that event went completely fine. The real waste of space was Pepe, and that was on a no-alter banner. Just because Hoshi's the limited doesn't necessarily mean it'll be bad.
>>532045953
I mean, what other archetype would fit her? We've heard plenty about guard fatigue, and Saria still deserves to be a brawler. Otherwise, where would she go? She's a defender through and through, nothing wrong with staying simple.

>>532046269
I JUST DON'T LIKE IT OKAY?!
IT WAS COOL WHEN IT WAS AMIYA BORROWING SHIT FROM ANCIENT SARKAZ KINGS
IT'S NOT COOL WHEN EVERY SARKAZ MUTT HAS IT

>>532046258
Oh for fuck sake, fuck off. I literally roll my eyes every single time I read Quercus and healer in the same sentence because I know for a fact you are just parroting some random insect without getting why it is so.

>Now it's salesposting
Just going down the list today

>>532046258
Dumbass. How many stages do you need more than two instances of immortality? Some of you retards have a completely irrational fear of limited use skills despite the fact that you rarely activate most operators skills more than once and practically never more than twice in a fight. Just monkeybrained fear of scarcity with no real impact on gameplay

>>532045604
KEK

>>532046479
Now that you said it, I think I agree. That was a shitty complaint on my part.

>>532046479
I don't care about Pepe, I don't care about alt or not. It's a shit choice regardless, Namie or otherwise, just because it's not the worst possible thing doesn't make it good. We got shit like Wis'adel for gods sake, they are all terrible choices

>>532046479
You are agreeing with his point, retard.

>>532045978

>>532046776
reminder that /akg/ had less traffic last month than when the site was dead for half a month.

>>532045714
At first I didn't like the alt spam but now I'm warming up to it because the cast is bloated and I would like my wife to eventually get content again rather than just collecting dust until EoS.

Hoshi definitely deserved this alt. She is a classic Arknights launch op with roles in the story and a kit that needs modernizing. You could argue all the launch ops deserve alts.

>>532045916
Qui'lon legacy lives on!

Yan and Higashi is Kazdel clay!

IMAGINE IF THE FUCKING...UHHH DIABLO KING GOT SOMEHOW CONNECTED TO DURINS AND THEY WOULD GET SICK FLAME POWERS

>>532046814
Nothing making me jump out of my seat but it's just, normal. Feels like most are just trying to have something to complain about especially with year old shit like Pepe even

>Quilon content right in time for when we hear Quilon VA in the anime
i kneel...

>>532046879
The cast has been bloated since year 4 I'd say. It took you this long to realize?

>>532046258
Even without restriction silence2 S3 immortality is almost nothing (wow 10 seconds on ONE operator), and the medic part while actually decent, you could just use a medic that heals without downtime. I can't believe anyone seriously shills that shit is good even if you took that away, let alone with the restriction.

Flame breathing Durin Alt...

>>532046876
>>532046876
Reminder that the site and especially the gacha threads never really recovered after the site was dead for a month. The majority of the bigger ones decided to stay on the place with the boogeyman ids because of their problems with shitposting in here. And

But hey it goes against your narrative so do go ahead uuuuuugh male banner .... bad!

>>532046879
>Hoshi definitely deserved this alt
facts

They are going to do a call back to this CG but with Hoshiguma2 with her new katana and Ch'en2's new skin with her white sword...

>>532047031
>akg is complaining about anything because [current event] farms are already set-up
Indeed it is a day ending in Y

>>532046814
Thorns skin is cool. No grand effects or background but seems good and could do a lot with the skill effects which are the main thing for Alchemists.

Summer Event is just kinda shit. Great Chief is the only truly enjoyable one.

I love my raccoon wife!

>>532046660
See, but what I don't get is: what would be considered 'good' choices? There's no winning with the hive mind here, every choice is shit somehow. Is Hoshi bad because she's boring? Because she's a defender again, even though she doesn't fit into any other box than guard? You can say things like 'they're all terrible choices' but without proper reasoning, it's all subjective. I just don't know what some of you want at this point.
>>532046670
I was saying that Hoshi being the limited isn't necessarily a problem just because she's an alter. Pepe was a new release and complete shit, while Eyja + Swire went completely fine. Alters aren't necessarily the problem, especially as the game gets older.

okay but what if we stopped putting ch'en in new events

>>532046460
Ah right, the great limiteds such as Gavial2, W (forma de original), Choom2, Dusk, Ling, Mumu and others.
When you're starting AK, you have around 1k rolls in main story, events, old annihilations and other content. That's enough to get all the limiteds that you really want, unless you want collab limiteds or all limiteds.
I dropped my CN account after dunmeshi banner and only returned during ch15. In 1 month I was able to get 80 rolls on Mon3tr banner and collect 400 rolls to spark Rosmontis and Skadi2, getting Texas2, Rosmontis dupe, pot6 Exu2, pot4 Lemuen and 4 or 5 spooks in the process.
You're really underestimating how much shit new players have

>>532047237
Oh fuck I haven't even realized that Chen from Arknights will probably make an appeareance.
Why the fuck is she wandering the world again?

>>532047237
YOOOO THAT'S KINO AS SHIT!
I CLAPPED!

Honor is my loyalty - Kal'tsit

>>532046710
>Jesus christ, and I thought it was bad for me, 4 is diabolical
I like getting all the skins I can...

>>532047237
Is Ch'en gonna show up in the event?
Isnt Ch'en currently on a quest with her dumbass uncle thats gonna turn his wife into a widow with his antics to kill the heavely emperor of Yan?

So... why not Kal summer skin yet?

>>532047193
Except the other place is dead as fuck and most over there post on both liek theAscalonfag, with the exception of the Pinusposter. To say that we are losing traffic because to that place is dishonest.

>>532046879
>You could argue all the launch ops deserve alts.
For the sake of modernizing I agree. But they're just full-auto alter after alter after alter. Space them out a bit

>>532047237
Isn't Ch'en busy with Talulah?
I genuinely have no idea, I read neither the chinky nor the V*ctoria events

>>532047408
Gap year. Eurotripping the entire Terra (read: fucking anyone with two legs).

>>532047327
Mostima.

>>532047408
She is the protagonist

>>532047408
She's a Wuxia Hero
Being a wandering hero is their whole thi6

>>532047516
chinktent happens like 2 years after everything else, which is why you're going to see ch'en in entelechia's omnibus in about a month going on yet another retardquest for fuckshits

>>532047517
>So... why not Kal summer skin yet?
You need be alive to wear a swimsuit for one

>>532047459
I love this bunn

Best part of the leaks: future ursus content
There, I said it

>>532047562
They could also just make an alt banner and give Saria and Ifrit an alt together. Basically just consolidate alts.

>>532047327
>what would be considered 'good' choices?
Long awaited or genuinely relevant choices. I don't like her but understand choosing Arturia after the long wait, Nearl's with how long they alluded to her holding back, or the Sui because that's forced on us
I don't even like most choices, but the Limited status is there because it's going to happen every season. That's why even shit like Pepe, Hoshi2, Mumu etc end up happening. Not because they matter but because there is a spot to fill. Regardless of how much you like or hate them they don't need to be a limited
People have been looking forward to expansions on people like Ifrit, Shining or even Saria for ages. You can understand it with Pepe since you hate her as much as anyone should but can't understand that for fucking Hoshiguma?

>>532047627
Damn... Imagine how many mutt babies she had to abort in span of that one year.
Wei must be proud.

>>532047595
She follows Talulah and Reunion to Ursus and eventually by the chink events goes to Yan

The funniest thing about this shithole is that most characters are forgotten and aren't discussed under any shape or form but as soon as an alt gets revealed suddenly you get enjoyers, lovers, fans and husbands out of nowhere. For example only 1% of the people remember Benna or April exist but if they were to get a 6* version tomorrow those mythical forms of existence would appear out of thin air.

There is enjoying slop, there is being into the culd and then there is the behavior we observe on akg.

Maybe people are just tired of being locked in one place with constant shitposters and doomposters. Maybe Arknights isn't reclining but /akg/ is reclining. Maybe having IDs wasn't such a bad idea

>>532047389
>Ah right, the great limiteds such as Gavial2, W (forma de original), Choom2, Dusk, Ling, Mumu and others.
Yes
>all the cool characters I want

>That's enough to get all the limiteds that you really want, unless you want collab limiteds or all limiteds.
It's not, 3k is. But desu, I want even more if I fully unrestrain myself, I'd say almost all of the limiteds is a good ballpark to guess at.

>When you're starting AK, you have around 1k rolls in main story, events, old annihilations and other content.
Still will take years unless I play 12h a day.

>>532045714
I'm just tired of alters and hoshi is kinda boring for one. 2/4 of the summer events have also had lungmen characters too. It's just fatigue

>>532047627
I am Dr.AnyoneWithTwoLegs

>>532046343
>Narantuya carried and is way hotter than Hoshi
You aren't even a Naratuya fan or you'd no she gets zero art

So how are they going to make the abjurer fish good

I'm curious if there's an actual appetite for Shining2, or if it's just kind of a resigned inevitability that yeah she would get one because they've been talking about it for so long
it's just more sarkazwank innit

>>532047545
Whether you like it or not there are still like 60 or 70 that are no longer posting here.

>>532047741
It really is far past time for the next one
>>532047805
>You can understand it with Pepe since you hate her as much as anyone should but can't understand that for fucking Hoshiguma?
He's using Pepe to say Hoshi isn't that bad, it's just another "at least it's not X." Theres no lack of understanding just shitposting

>>532047825
>most characters are forgotten
I challenge you to a duel
>https://www.sporcle.com/games/DeltaNemesis/all-arknights-operators

>hurr durr "nobody' actually cares about x character! Metafag! Trendchaser!
Fuck off already retard.

Is Ch'en even doing anything with her roadtrip? It feels like she just shows up in a random story and then does nothing

>>532047627
Chen the Whoreallday..

Does anyone actually know what the fuck Ch'en is doing I don't even remember her last appearance
Isn't she wearing this right now

>>532047741
You do realize there is a small change Ursus content might mean Reunion, right?

>>532047993
If you asked me this few years ago I would be in the first group. Now? I FUCKING HATE SARKAZ AND I'M TIRED OF THEM

Why do we have to bitch about everything
I'm even bitching about your bitching

>>532048194
About time Reunion actually does something

>>532047993
I don't want more sarkaz for a long, long time.

>>532047741
Bitch we already knew that was happening

>>532048126
She literally just appeared this event, you dumb speed reader

>>532047993
I wouldn't mind Shining2 but I really don't give a fuck over her/her family subplot line. Nearl appearance is the only good thing going on there.

Would be nice if it focused on just Followers doing some heroic shit, maybe focusing on Liz's future without yet again dealing with Quesadilla.

Yes anon, people like all sorts of different things that they may not talk about.
I know it's hard for an autist like you to understand that you don't need to be outwardly vocal about stuff to like it, contrary to what /akg/ might make you believe.

>>532047825
trvke, but just to state the obvious, not all ops need to have a gazillion fans. It's okay there's one Aprilfag, she doesn't need more. The casuals, coomers, and retards slobber over the same mainstream ops and that's a good thing. I see why some anons say they don't want alts for their wife since it brings fotm posers who don't care about their wife at all and other bad attention.

>>532048060
Whatever you say, anon. You weren't posting them just because .. the general doesn't deserve to see the pictures!

>>532048319
Oh true? Cool

>>532048126
Doesn't Suitent happen after everything else?
Isn't this far away in the timeline?

>>532047649
Then you'll just get complaints about an alter again, though Mostima deserves it. (Shining and Saria deserve ones too)
>>532047805
This feels disingenuous because as this thread has proven, Hoshi isn't disliked. People have been clamoring for Higashitent for years, and she was always the safest bet. Plus, given Hoshi's original role in the story, she's long overdue for some development herself. To think she isn't deserving of it is foolish. Yes, I want Ifrit/Shining/Saria too, but there are plenty of alters to slog through
>>532047993
The hype for her has died down post-Act II because she wound up getting sidelined in the plot, but if an opportunity for her arises again, oldpipis are gonna freak. Same with Saria.

>>532048126
>>532048078
Sui events is post Arc 3 of the main story so she pretty much already dealt with Talulah stuff and is now returning back home.

>>532047979
Baseline Shelter would probably be a mix of Quercus and the new 5* Abjurer, where she applies a big Shelter % to several allies in range but not all. Then give her a toggle skill, and probably some SP support or extra focus on survival like dodge granting or reducing enemy ATK.

>>532047332
Why? It's her game

>>532048220
Because this is a Talons of Hatred board, we must eternally fuel that hatred and rage

>Still will take years unless I play 12h a day.
You can speedrun ch1-ch15 in 10 hours using Walter.
You can speedrun all old annihilations in 6 hours using Walter.
You'll need like 9 weeks to unlock all old events but each one of them takes only 1.5 hours to beat.
Of course, for new players that don't know what they're doing this is going to be longer. However it's nowhere close to "years". You can get most of the stuff you want by starting ~2 months before the limited banner and using the currency you get wisely.
Still, I wouldn't recommend using Walter to newpipis as she's killing the fun of playing the game.

>>532048354
Specter, Blaze and Reed were justified. Wuh was unjustified.

Dumb fucking bitches

>>532048383
If you didn't see the two leizifags we have post Leizi every other day then you're either a tourist or hooked up on too many filters to be eligible to speak. We have ponfags, we have aromafags, we have lucillafags. Every brick gets someone, even the new chinky glutton.

>>532048459
it's weird that it feels like there was a sharp downward inflection point with /akg/ lately though
I can't think of anything that happened with the game or with /vg/ that lines up

>>532048354
>Specter unjustified
Lol
Lmao

You should be doing this. Do this more. Wifeposting is endgame Arknights and loving your wife is all that truly matters in the end. If you are NOT publicly holding hands with your wife... then that's not very loving of you.

>>532048649
concept wise them visiting the village and learning from them is pretty cool to gain an alt. compare to shit like swire/chen just putting on a bikini
but yeah being a collab means they can't continue that lore which sucks

Summer is a rotating schedule between Sargon and Lungmen characters every other year with a few stragglers.
What the fuck do you want then?

>>532048698
I guess people are getting kinda jaded + shitposters + 4chud going down + arguably really shit leak.
Like I honestly feel that Hypergryph has been steadily losing steam when it comes to Arknights and seeing how the main story was mostly a disappointing mess between CH10-14 then it's not surprising that people are starting to dooooom more and more.

Anon, the Skadi one isn't even the character anymore. Hell, forget that. It isn't even the character we've seen in the event. The only one that have any character growth or were justified by the stories of the character are Nearl, Jessica and maybe Laurentina and Vina. The rest are just a different shade of holding back gang or HG banking on the popularity of the character.

I think the alter spam isn't helping, even if some of the alters have been long overdue. If I were HG, I'd take a break from alters in Q1 2026 and tackle more of the NPC backlog. As for the main story, CH15 was a promising start to Act III.

>>532049630
I meant his alt isn't utilized because he's functionally the same guy physically and in terms of feats, getting his alt didn't let him do anything he couldn't before.

Noir and Yato should've just gotten normal alts with a collab skin

>>532047193
besides the doubletime posters (people who use both), the other place has people who are extremely jaded from shitposters and now want a 0 tolerance policy, but the result is just a very stale and boring general. It's like a boomer forum.

I'm in the top-3 of Hoshiguma fans since release but I can't say that I'm too hyped about her alt. She's already good enough, I don't like new art so much and I very much doubth she'll have meaningful character changes or progression.
I don't hate anything about this leaks, they are all just utterly fucking mediocre besides Eblana skin.
There are like 10 characters that need alts more than Hoshiguma and there's also general alt fatigue.

>>532049776
This 100%

>>532049771
Well, not really. Being a saint let's him pull off a lot of bullshit whenever he needs to by pulling out the "I'm a saint" card so people gotta follow his orders. Plus without the character development that came with the alt Laterano would've been fucked too.

>>532049674
Yeah I honestly feel like AK is kinda getting out of a dump, newest content has been quite good, with the exception of some stinkers like Tragodia, so I'm quite hopeful for the future.
You can even kinda see it when it comes to the music. There was a period of time after Lateranotent when most tracks were just variations of WUB WUB*bass drop*WUUUUB, but lately it's started getting more varied again.

>>532049630
This narrator guy should just shut the fuck up

hm, I don't buy the main story being the reason. The timelines don't really match up, ch 14 dropped way before any of this and the reception for ch 15 was neutral at worst

Strange enough I've realized that /akg/ has never had the problems other big gacha generals had. The worst I can think of is that one guy that shoved metal rod in his ass and maybe the nikker but he just happens to play both games and has a strange way of shitposting.

>>532049961
>Didn't he become a Saint only because the precursor program wanted to end its existence?
No, the precursor program printed out a list of saint name because it calculated disaster was coming. Then Executor learned about killing yourself which turned out to be the chekov's gun for dealing with the cube when it was hijacked by Priestess.
The single most important part of his alt is learning about suicide.

>CC gradually grows old over time

I feel like history is repeating itself. The main mode can only go through so many iterations before players get tired of the formula. Doesn't help that IS has been getting bigger and bigger, and now you *have* to play it in order to efficiently raise Raidian. Problem is, the only expansion-based alternative to IS, RA, has seemingly been abandoned in the dirt. So, without anything to alternate with/substitute for IS, what can HG do? Release more experimental modes like the arcade selection or Stronghold, or try to push IS further?

>>532048354

zumama's module makes me think they haven't totally abandoned RA, they just don't know how to make it not suck ass yet

>>532050614
it's vague about it anyhow, it's basically just "the incident". if you know the r6 collab then you know, otherwise it's just a mysterious lore thing much like other ops backstory. this lets them axe r6s stuff if it ever causes an issue showing that she's her own op, instead of her existing = r6s canon like most people assume

>>532050925

>>532051025
>Snowsant is int
>Chen is in it
What did he mean by this?

>>532049630
How the FUCK is Magallan that high?

It's become very apparent to me just how much /akg/ actually doesn't read. And if they do there's a big chance they didn't actually understand it. This stems from the fact that people will really only care about reading about characters they care for, but you're not gonna care about 99% of the characters. So when someone reads about them they misunderstand and simplify and then spread their headcanon here to others that don't even read. And their reading comprehension is so bad you can't even trust them to understand the 1% of characters they do care about.

>>532050952
The problem with IS has always been the finite number of stages we get every expansion. It is a bit hard to explain but I can play Isaac for 600 hours at the very least because every run will be different from the last and there are secrets for me to uncover. IS is fun when you are experimenting with things but eventually it gets boring because you realize what the best options to complete your run are.

>>532051118
Or maybe because it was a collab and they don't want to pay Ubisoft 6 million so that they can namedrop the characters in a 5*'s profile files

>>532051480
It's always the former first front in case they need to burn the bridges. They're not afraid to do so either just look at the destiny collab and ascalon skin

>>532050952
>The main mode can only go through so many iterations before players get tired of the formula
trvke, IS is getting stale, I agree. I mean they were all great but it's taking the path of old CC at this point. They never touched anni either despite that being ancient.
>Problem is, the only expansion-based alternative to IS, RA, has seemingly been abandoned in the dirt.
Because it's just not as good. It has improved with their changes to it... but it's still a mediocre mode. I think it's better than SSS at least, but that's a low bar. I like Trials for Navigator better. But anyway, they decided not to keep tweaking it and give up on it. I think they could have made it a very fun mode by fixing its core issues (IT'S SLOWWWWWW), but they gave up and are just going all in on Endfield instead of trying to make Arknights better.
>So, without anything to alternate with/substitute for IS, what can HG do? Release more experimental modes like the arcade selection or Stronghold
Yes, pretty much. Or remake the modes to freshen them up. Stronghold was amazing, just needed more stages and difficulty and maybe a co-op functionality to it. The arcade games were meh, only about two of them were somewhat fun. They'd be better as dorm games, like Animal Crossing has.

Sanctuary is terrible because it doesn't stack with itself and thus makes it meaningless in the long run. I can get using one if you don't have Shu but I can't think of a reason why would I go out of my way to use an Abjurer when I have her. In addition to the fact she does way more than bringing Sanctuary and it is the defacto gimmick of Abjurers.

Also SP battery in the age of M3 is just hilarious.

She'll give 50% vigor and sanctuary with easy to satisfy condition (more than 50% hp) and her other talent will make sure all of allies in her range will always satisfy that condition.

the hoyo leakers dont really understand stuff, so when they say silverash-alt it could just mean silverash appears in the event, or even the event banners art. they'd call this nian leak for example

From a banner like that it would be obvious SilverAsh is the alt BECAUSE HE WOULD GET A DIFFERENT OUTFIT YOU MORON

>Matoimaru and May finally get their skins
>Just Bubble, Estelle, and Haze now (for old 4* at least)
What are we expecting the order to be? I'm guessing Haze --> Estelle --> Bubble, mostly because Cenm0 dipped.

>>532055442
Cenm0 operators are never getting skins again. It's time to stop coping.

>>532054986
attention seeking. hopefully its a one time thing here and they don't stick around. surely they'll fuck off to endfield when thats out

>>532055487
Nah, Bubble will get one eventually. They're whittling down the 4* bit by bit, and it'd be easy to give her a different artist (especially as a one-off). I still think it'll take a while, though.

>its going to be a literally who
>That winter, they'd done everything they could, and had the Clinic's patients, doctors, and medical resources all evacuated from Chernobog... Yet the name 'Azazel' was forsaken there, left behind.
>These days, new nomadic plates sit atop the ruins, an omnipresent smog of industry and checkpoints and the Ursus Guard, still going by the name of 'Chernobog.' And Azazel has been 'rebuilt' in a sense, the Emperor's overseers tacitly letting it exist. 'Azazel.' The name itself something to believe in. Once, it was a rare respite to those the Empire deemed scar tissue, a safe haven in the endless nights. With no hesitation, the Infected chose where it had once been to come together again, and even the Infected that wandered the wilds and tundras came too, of their own accord.
>To Ursus, they always were hideous scars. Had the events of 1096 been sufficient to change the Empire's attitude towards them? The answer is laughable. In the so-called 'Federal Territory of Chernobog' is no Ursus Guard, who only care to stand watch outside of it, and to Hellagur, and of course to Neon, the role that the vaunted 'Azazel' plays atop those ruins is all too clear. In the new plate crammed full of Infected, death and disappearance may be diluted in the greater chaos, but they are still taking place, right this very moment.

>>532056164
I don't care if it's his alt or not, just saying how unreliable those hoyo can be so don't trust their words on the details. They initially called yelan getting a swimsuit skin. The swimsuit skin in question:

>>532056164
Lol they aren't doing Exu and SA alt within 6 months of each other. Be honest with your expectations

>>532056180

>>532056560
It's more of a swimsuit than most of our "swimsuits"

>>532056839
She's a lupo....

There are like 3 or 4 different story lines leading into Ursus rn. So I have no doubts we'll get both event and main story chapter.
>Main story
Closure or Warfarin alt
>Reunion
Talulah/Nine
>USSG
Zimaalt
However I'd like to get a completely new Ursus character. Preferrably, someone on the side of the Emperor.
Main story chapter will most likely be about fighting Koschey. We know that Doc, M3 and Amiya are going to New Chernobog to get Sarcophagus. Meanwhile, Koschey wants to solve Ursus energy crisis. So we most likely will be fighting him to get control over Sarcophagus.

>>532056839
Good thing she isnt a feline then

>>532056924
>So I have no doubts we'll get both event and main story chapter.
Not both in October we're not. This is just like last year. Summer -> Collab -> Event/Story Chapter(Siege/Chapter 16) -> Half anni

>>532056738
>Lol they aren't doing Exu and SA alt within 6 months of each other
What reason do you have for this? We just got Lappland and Exu 6 months apart. And those two are by the same artist too.

Ursus content isn't ALL about bears you know. They deployed hellagur and even wendigos like patriot, kal'tsit too worked with them
Don't turn it into siracusa lupospam 2.0. There's more going on than just bears

>>532057220
Lappland isn't a 6* and doesnt have half the legacy SA does.

>>532057194
I mean, eventually we'll get both. Maybe Main Story in october and side story in December? I also can see the future where we get RA3 about Reunion and Nine gets to be omnibus operator for it.

>>532057281
Lol dead and blue panties

The only way to redeem the constant alts is to give us a Royal Guard op for the Ursus event.

>>532057409
>and doesnt have half the legacy SA does.
The for (you) one? Cause she had the same amount of fanworks.

>>532057409
She is now and luckily neither does Exu, so all your made up restrictions should allow it

I like making up retarded rules, statements, and banking on patterns to later get mad about when I'm wrong

>>532058663
It's just a scaling change, normal is A6, calamity is A9. sure you can go higher but it's not worth it anyway. for how fast normal runs are now the amount of points per run doesn't matter at the risk of losing the run

... honestly? based, fuck spoonfeeders.

Nyot letting Doctor go~

Good morning bros. On the topic of IS2, I spoke with some CN players and found out that clears completed with Castle Sightseeing (the lowest difficulty) don't count for relic or squad unlocks. In my experience, however, they may be bugged regardless, as some relics are still locked on my account despite having cleared on the higher difficulties. I'll make a note on the wiki about it but I'm surprised there's a limitation on those, not being able to access Tactical Assault Squad immediately (or any of the instant promotion squads) would make clears a lot more difficult for newcuties.
