>>1674282 (OP)
hmm...kanyata!

This better not be another double banner, I don't think I have enough gems/tickets to get one unit to LR, let alone two. I just barely got Claudia to LR on this final day because I didn't save up enough Reds thinking it was only gonna be Anne. I'm already pissed I missed out on Rachel's outfit because I could only get her to UR1 before running out of gems, if they do another surprise double banner again the FOMO will probably make me drop this game.

>>1674350
They probably just put Claudia since people will skip Anne anyway with Ilyana on the horizon.

>>1674350
>>1674350
The patch notes are out in-game which just mentions Kanata. A bit sketch but nothing crazy. Good thing cause if it was Kanata + Taliafe I'd be fucked. Also getting the Yurizia skin that dropped in KR too. They also got an Arcphase skin too but since we don't have her, who knows when.

>>1674484
This looks so much better than her dumb drinking hat.

Man, I probably will only roll Ilyana till UR1 due to fodder problem. Kanata cute tho

I am definitely LR5ing Ilyana, drill sexo!

How the fuck do you fight Marionette? My team can only deal sub 10k damage, is that normal? Fuck this shit unable to see other team composition.

>>1677705
generic yurizia + kaito + rachel slop team with rayhoe + tank. Maybe some Eradica kanata whale comp somewhere.

Idek anymore my whole guild doesn't try and we just chill somewhere top fiddy

>>1677829
What's your damage and team level? That's exactly my team comp except Shale.

>>1677897
nta but I only change rachel for kanata and I got 20m on sync 200. Probably can push higher with 1 supp instead of 2 if I bring 3 dps instead but eh, I'm not on cartel's guild to care about that.

>>1677928
>Can only do 10M on lvl 190
I know I should've upgrade my LR gear but it feels like a waste spending mats on non set equipment.

>>1678647
Just upgrade the wep and the gloves for the DPS if you feel you're lacking. It'll be long before you get a proper set.

>>1677707

>>1685861
I'm playing it, just waiting to pool hard on Illyana.

>>1685948
This but Frederica so I can quit after failing to grab her LR.

>>1685953
I managed to get Eradica to LR with less than that, so there's hope for you. I also had fucking horrible luck at first, probably spend 50K before I got the first copy of her.

>>1685953
hoarder god....
I managed to LR5 Eradica with exactly 1k pulls, think I'll also prepare 1k pulls for Frederica but I'll also drop the game if I fail to LR5

DPS just gets cucked if not fully maxed
>>1685861
not much to talk abt, just same old sector pushing, comfy and quiet general fr

>>1686014
I planned to grab Marilight if I got Frederica to LR. But it seems that you need so many after that, Comet and Echidna being the primary objective.

>3 pulls away from LR5ing Kanata but can't push any higher in tower and have exhausted every other starbit source
Tomorrow I guess.

>3rd in World Raid
Man. I shouldn't be too upset, but I was 2nd before going to sleep. Guess someone stopped sandbagging and did a last minute run or got super lucky with the Kanata Damage Skip bug.

>>1686458
I will likely just LR Marilight since she's a support and LR5 Comet/Echidna since RGBs are easy to LR5. Pretty much everything after is a must pull, including the DOA Fox cunny that ended up being meta with the new dark cunny (Leia)

Think I'll have enough gem income being on a dead server

>>1686910
Might be easier for RGB, not the fodder part though. I remember still scraping gacha ones despite getting enough dupes to LR5 Kaito.

>>1686910
Contrary to that one dumbfuck's vid, Rindel helped perpetuate the 0-second meta in PVP, so she wasn't really DOA. If anything, Leia was almost DOA because KR whales were dissatisfied with her and didn't think she was worth being an L/D unit. Got buffs and is great now.
>cunny
Leia's taller than Sia though.

>>1674282 (OP)
Am I too late to start on this game? How bad is to F2P this one?

>>1688203
As long as you don't care about chasing top of the arena and such, yeah it shouldn't be too hard to catch up. This is a game about getting dupes for everyone slowly unless you care about getting swimsuit costumes at a character's release, so there's no rush to max characters out immediately otherwise. The game is fairly generous and the pity system works well, I enjoy it a lot as a casual side gacha.

>>1688203
Not at all late. But if you want to take it seriously then here's how you do it. In fact, you can top a server as a f2p/low spender with this progression.

Feel free to skip post if casual and just pull on waifus you like, it's an idle game after all.

>wait for a new server to launch (IMPORTANT!!!)
>hopefully reroll 1 copy of Rayhou on day 1 of server launch
>reach 14-60 on day 1
>14-60 on day 1 of server launch means you hit chapter 22 at 130 sync
>this is equivalent to sector 30 at 180 sync down the line
>only merc on 3 stage teams and numerically impossible bosses (for example 9-55 on day 1 is impossible numerically, forced to merc here)
>mald all 3 team stages if possible and time debi 3s

If you progress like how I outlined above you will be 5-7 sectors ahead of the ENTIRE server. Unless a tryhard malder whale comes in. But even then at this progression, you will be able to compete with whales for the first few months.

An early lead is super important since it snowballs down the line and you will permanently be getting more rewards from arenas/raids/ and so on.

More than viable for f2ps assuming you want to put in the time.

t. 1st place in my server everywhere, monthly + BP only.

AAAAAIEEEE I GOT TEMPTED BY THE ILLYANA'S ILLYANAS AND I STILL RUN OF OUT OF FODDER AFTER KANATA. Does Kanata invalidate Ferrel now in world boss?

>>1689881
I haven't used Ferrel in ages. Crimson took her spot the moment Rachel came out. Cause Crimson's bleed go brrrrr. I run both Crimson and Kanata anyways for the most part

Managed to get Illiana to LR3, should be able to finish her before the rateup ends.

Huh? What happened to the starseed previous thread? Why is that not in the archives?

>>1690959
https://arch.b4k.dev/vmg/thread/1613350/#1613350

>>1690267
How does it matter for Rachel that Crimson's bleed go brrrr? Is there some synergy that doesn't get explained?

>>1691336
Crimson more or less perma bleeds world boss and Rachel has skills that deal additional dmg when target is bleeding.

>>1689881
Nah not really. Ferrel is still a strong option even by today's standard in KR. I use her and she'll always deal a considerable amount of damage with great synergy.
>>1691336
Crimson's plugin gives allies in middle and back row bonus attack against target's with bleed after she ults. It makes red units do 50% more damage in general to targets with bleed. Since both Rachel and Crimson cause bleed constantly, Rachel gets a spike in dealing damage.

Newfriend here, when does Marilight release or have I missed her?

>>1694903
We don't know but certainly not the next month at least. Probably in May I guess.

>>1695013
Thanks, I'll prolly dump my starting gems into frederica next month then save for Marilight.

Honestly just started playing when her banner came out cause big drills and big tits
got her to LR4 within these 2 weeks
game was real generous with its gems

>>1701084
Yeah, this game is comfy and easy to get what you want.

>didn't get jackshit on previous week
>get this
Great, now I can't redeem until the next week.

>>1701084
If you play long enough you should be able to LR5 every RGB banner assuming you rank high enough in all types of ranked content.
>>1701403
(You) are now subjected to manual dispatches saar. DO NOT REDEEEEEM

these niggers aint letting me gamble what the fuck is this maint ext? let me get my LR5 Fred already before I rape all the Asnia girls

I really hate the creator/destroyer banner type. 300 pulls on Eradica and got shit and now another 300 on Frederica and it's still shit. I'm just gonna save my extracts for Marilightwife and once I get her to to at least LR I'm never touching the C/D banner type again.

>>1702175
It's that expensive. It feels like 200k jims is needed for LR push. Half-assing for one copy does kind of bad too.

>Update adds a new upgrade mechanic which can give some pretty neat abilities
>But it costs 1000 gems each try, it's also random from a large pool of abilities
Damn they really want to drain you dry. You get to keep every ability you get so eventually you'll get something good but it's only for that character you roll it on. Pretty much just more whalebait shit, I imagine the only time I'd use it is for the best possible units.

>>1702517
bro...just roll it for free from new team arena rewards (rainbow crystal thing)

obviously rolling with bits is whalebait, I'm just waiting for my free weekly handouts

Trash.

What's up with hard mode of the event stages being locked behind so many days?

>>1707022
Comet is like Claudia and doesn't have an event story. So the extra time is filler for Comet's event

T-t-thanks

Had to spend right at 100 bux to get that last copy for LR Frederica. Damn these creator/destroyer banners are rough.

>>1711584
Thanks for funding the server for 3 hours bros. I hope with you can redeem marilight with the remaining frederica fragment conversion into creator/destroyer shard.

>>1712594
No, that was with using the shards. I did two full, complete rotations, so it took right at 1000 pulls to get what I have. Considering four of them were from the shards and the copies from the fragment conversion, my luck was beyond abysmally bad.

Did they extend the maintenance?

>>1714517
Server was up for a bit but they took it down again to fix some bugs.

Does this let you select which unit you get? I thought since it didn't say select or choose that it meant you get a random one.

Welcome back, starsneeders,

Who's the next character that has event? I think Marlight doesn't have one right?

>>1734053
Marlight is next.

>>1734633
She doesn't seems need high dupe. Should I push? For bikini at least.

Finally got Marilightwife to LR but they were pretty generous this time with the event, giving back about 159 roll tickets after 600 pulls (Guess they realized the creation/destruction banner was too fucking stingy). I decided to push to LR 5, no regrets for the best girl.

>>1734972
It feels like you don't even need the cunny now for 0 second burst. Mari and the nu-rangers are good enough for it.

I somehow managed to LR her, and this is after LR5ing Tailafe on the banner before. It was really sweet they basically gave out two free copies of her(one from the code and one from pulling enough). Cheers bros!

Did they make it easier to trigger LR dispatch or is this just a hot streak?

I've been somewhat curious for a while if the Top 10 who made it into this mode actually got to play it. Guess I have my answer.

>>1738869
I hadn't gotten any LR until the day after you posted, and then I got 1 or 2 LR every single day for the rest of the week.

Who is the next character? I managed to get Marilight to LR3.

It said to be Amy based on blurred teaser on publisher stream.

Managed to LR5 Amy at the last minute. I'm sitting out the next banner or two for sure...

>>1750934
personally I'd skip Cathy (TGW/Raid meta unit)
Dead server? already dominating your server's boss raids?
>skip

Rindell aka fox cunny (PvP meta)
Dead server? ahead by a lot? (talking 60+ sync levels ahead)
>skip

Karen (forgotten and never used really)
>skip

Leia (LR5 mandatory cause it's L/D and a DPS)
Ollie (LR mandatory, support for melee meta)

The newest unit on KR server is mid (Lydia so that's a skip too) Plenty of dead time to rebuild gem stash.

>>1750953
Bell is apparently really strong in PvP and such but if your server's PvP bracket is dead or you're way ahead in sync levels then you can skip it too.

t. sync 300 ish while rank 2 is like sync 240 KEK

>>1750953
Karen is great for whalers or if you can somehow manage to get her Plugin LR. I'm kind of annoyed she's gotten skipped.
>>1750956
Belle is dominating every aspect of the game besides World Raid in KR. Insane character. Both Belle and Karen were staple characters in the latest Custom Raids in KR.

>>1751432
>no Leia at all
She's bricked already...

>>1751432
oh shid, I literally can't pull either cause 0 gems atm from Marilight -> Amy

Wish we had the animated rank 1 frame on global

>>1751432
Since it seems like Belle's next. Is she human right or not?

They sure are skipping around with the global character release dates, huh.

>>1761305
Not the first time they shuffled Ideola characters all around.

>LR outfit is less lewd than her default
Nice disincentive I guess.

...Alright.

Could anyone give me a 1 to 10 score on how good the story is for this game?

>>1764014
It's alright. Main story updates is glacial though.

>>1764014
I would agree with the above poster and say it's alright. If I had to compare this game to anything, I would say it's a cross between Nikke and Blue Archive. There is an air of seriousness occasionally, but most of it is fun slice of life stuff with cute AI girls.

>>1750953
>Lydia tomorrow
Are we caught up to kr or what?

>>1769395
this board is so dead that I don't bother checking /vmg/ much but no we're not
Devs are being retarded and swapping unit release out of order. Not like it matters because they keep releasing mid units so I'll just keep hoarding bits

Here's a basic pull guide for any new anons/lurking anons:
>PvP unit: dead server PvP? ez top 3 every season? skip PvP unit
>Raid units: dead server? top 10 gtw? top 3 custom/world raid? skip raid unit
>Support unit: can function at MR1 technically, pull to LR to be safe and stop all pulls after (Ollie for example)
>DPS: Is it capable to push sector 43+ content?
yes: pull to LR5
no: outright skip
>Light/dark? Always LR5 for f2p/low spender cause average lucklets won't spook them easily with green tix

Think this also covers future questions cause I don't check here much anymore. I have no content left to do.

>>1774958
>tfw my server still has some resemblance of life on PvP
Man it sucks because I don't like the PvP and I'm still stuck on 39-6. I don't know whether that caused by my Illyana hasn't maxed her optimization or my Marilight being ssr1.

>>1775012
PvP meta has been the exact same one since Echidna came out. You just run Stealth 1 on everything and whoever ULT first wins. My server is extremely retarded and they're still running Kaito/Rachel comps. The smarter ranger comp players don't run Stealth 1 so they get melted too. But atp I skip battle on randos and don't fish out rank 2 but that still sits me top 3. PvP meta may change soon once Leia comes out tho since she'll paralyze enemies with 70%+ EP at start of battle (aka the insta nuke ranger comp)

Post 1/2

>>1775034
I looked up that stage just now and found an old clear for it (not mine). Can't remember what I cleared that stage with but probably Taliafe. Taliafe in Claudia's position can snipe Freyja out at the start if you run insta-nuke ranger comps.

Could probably do it with Belle's blossom too if placed in Claudia's spot since her blossom actually targets the farthest like Taliafe (but translated wrong in game)

Most clear guides are outdated and not maintained anymore but for sector 39 you could prob cheese a good amount of content with a LR5 Belle merc

Post 2/2

>>1775034
The stealth doesn't get affected by Melissa?
>don't have belle LR5 merc
It's nyover...

>>1775061
I tested it just now in arena and could still fire off my ULTs when I have Stealth 1. Took off Stealth 1 and can't fire my ULTs anymore.
>time to friend request spam sync 350 players from Ocean, Blizzard or DKM...it's nyever nyover

>>1775085
Seeing lvl 350 kraken is rare enough. Finding one that somehow has Belle merc is even rarer.

>>1776081
Join one of the guilds above or their sister guilds, ping the kraken on their 'cord to swap mercs

>>1776641
I'm not sure if they allowed me to get in their guilds. Besides, I'm still like my current guilds.

0.6% bullshit. Only 2 Leias in 330, and the dogshit exchange gave me all shards. If this was the same rate as prior L/D banners it'd be my average but now it's worse with the increase, even if it is just a measly 0.2%.

>>1782965
Creator/Destroyer banners are just utter dogshit, the guaranteed SSR is still a .6% chance for them so it doesn't matter at all. I dumped what I had left after LR5ing Lydia to try and snag one copy, but I got zilch.

>>1782965
I got dry spell of nothing after got lucky with shard and 2 copies after 200 pulls and just got enough in the end after full cleaning the shard to get her to LR in the end with back-to-back Leia. Idk if I'll push her to LR5, The swimsuit is enough for me.

>3 weeks of no LR followed by 3 days of straight LR
Can they just make it to be not lopsided so much?

>finish my last arena hits last night and end up at rank 7 with more than 100 points between me and 6th place
>check the mail today
>5th place

How the fuck??? I can only assume the top whales must've cannibalized the poor saps above me but I've never ended up higher than 7 or 8 before. Really wish we could see the previous season's battle history so I could see if somehow I got a bunch of Defense wins too, and against what.

>>1790857
PvP that involves sniping is kind of annoying because you'll rarely see detailed tally on previous session so your best bet is just checking on the sniping session to see what happen.

Cute sperglord. It's been a while since I'd read the story event.

Is this game good? I have thoughts about playing it.

>>1799628
It's alright. Pretty much cookie cutter afk games though. Probably a slight difference of every character has 2 ult that can be adjusted depends on the situation. Oh and it has pity system for afk games.

>>1799713
What about the story, how would you rate the captivation of the story on a scale out of ten?

>>1801465
Personally, 8 out 10. It's light, has animated scene, and solid characterization. The only problem is the main story pace is so glacial(every gacha does) and the update is quite slow. Event story is decent, but I can't really handle unvoiced story so I just read event story for character that I like.

>>1801659
I'll try it then, probably.

>>1801666
Honestly it'll probably click with you if you like the BA aesthetics. But yeah give it a try.

>>1801668
I liked the dialogue interactions but the combat was a no for me. Atleast I tried it, I'd give it an 8 out of ten for dialogue, tye combat is too much afk for me.

Is Lynnete better than Melissa? It seems like Melissa is better if you still play around Claudia.

I'd rather they didn't unlock some limited resources on PvP. But you can't have everything.

>>1811493
The only thing I'd ask for is for the game to put me in a situation where I need to learn how to play

>>1812322
AFK games walls do be like that, it starts really simple before the difficulty ramp up. Idk how much your CP currently. But I reckon you'll start to feel the wall on stage 14.

>>1685861
true!

Good day gentlemen. I have returned once again after a long absence after seeing the new unit worthy of my pulls.
Btw, where's the ranking image for these characters using your Clairvoyance EX?

Is there a way to swiftly farm exp books? Leveling to 110 and up eats books so much more than what the usual dailies generate.

>>1817947
fight better daily bosses for better drops.
btw, anyone know what skill/item stunlocks an opponent? my cute and funny penguin is stunned at the start of the match in the arena and that's the first time i saw it.

>>1817990
>anyone know what skill/item stunlocks an opponent?
I remember some of the girls having a 2 second stun as a secondary skill, but I forgot which ones. Sorry.
If it helps, I believe one of them IS a Tank unit.

>>1818048
>>1817990
Melissa is a Computator tank that summons a clone at the start of the match that taunts the enemy units for the first 4 seconds of the match, forcing them to target the clone until it either disappears or dies. However, the clone doesn't appear until about 1 second into the match so with certain ranger comps it's possible to ult before it shows up with certain units.

There's also Leia, a recent Destroyer attacker who instant stuns any unit who starts the battle with over 70% of their EP charged for up to 5 seconds. She was designed to help counter the previously mentioned ranger instanuke comps, and as far as I'm aware there's no way for attackers to gain that much EP currently, outside of Adventure mode maybe.

Those are the only two units I'm aware of that can CC a unit with their passive for a significant amount of time. Are you sure it's not Adelie's own passive stunning her? Her passive roots herself for 12 seconds until someone comes within her attacking range.

>>1818394
>Her passive roots herself for 12 seconds until someone comes within her attacking range.
Yeah, this must be it. But jesas fucking christ. Why give her such handicap?

>>1818459
I haven't used her since I've only pulled a single copy of her so far, but apparently the buffs her passives gives can allow her to literally solo PVP fights in certain cases if she doesn't get immediately exploded.
https://youtu.be/DUZjq1wrSkc?si=RCYrNjXaag5sTR4S

>>1818459
This handicap sucks ass and keep giving me buyer remorse. And my dick forgive it everytime I see her sweaty pits.

She's so cute, bros...
Lewd night gown skin when haha...

Areti infinite stun seems nuts, but I don't know about that multiplier. Her shred is amazing but idk. Did we catch up to KR now?
