with all the inazuma talk I gotta say 5.1 gave me flashbacks. 5.0 story starts slow enough that I expected it takes 1-2 patches to find the other heroes and then shit goes down in 5.3 with the release of mavuika. instead suddenly
everything gets rushed inazuma-style and basically resolved. all that's left is her going into the kingdom of night, but how is that supposed to fill 2 patches?
they're also doing themselves no favor pushing people to complete them NOW instead of later, especially when they fuck up like they did.
- you have 20 days to finish the last reputation quest
- you have 40 days to finish the main story
alright, but the last reputation quest requires completion of the fucking main story! I had to binge most of it in one night so I could do the fucking rep quest, and with that and the rushed pacing some aspects fell completely flat for me, and worse other parts got dragged out way longer than necessary where I was almost getting annoyed that this shit
still isn't over yet. usually not an issue for me, especially given the last 4 years but man...
even more annoying is this "do it now for extra rewards" is hoyo compensating fucking up with the commission tied to exploration shit last year where everybody was saving it, otherwise it was fine for over three fucking years.
Got Hu Tao yesterday! Spent $30
how much you're willing to spend on C1?
If you cram it with enough low power/low desire characters, you can effectively have it run constantly and not worry about it impacting the limited banners. Bonus points in that you no longer need to worry that you're throwing up a shitty limited banner nobody wants because the characters are Albedo/Eula/Tartaglia/etc. We already have this with the launch 4* characters available twice per year in the shop. Chronicled wish should work similarly.
people don't save blue wishes, suddenly a worthwhile banner requiring them will cause backlash. a constant banner also doesn't generate FOMO - even as underpowered characters someone still wants them enough to possibly whale for it the one time they're available in 18 months.
agreed on the shop, but tbh it's more insulting that it's still limited and then putting those very same chars on banners to dilute the pool even more. just look at the last banner which was complete ass for most players, nor that other 4* were ever added. if they're really that worried new players don't have bennett or XL (yet) just put them in the shop the whole time for people to buy - you still have to roll enough dupes to buy then in the first place.
tbh hoyo should just give them out as event rewards, still fomo but at least it makes people play the game and possible whale for constellations, while making everyone happy because free stuff. but the game still makes too much money so they can be as stingy as they want.
But 80 glowy corals requirement equals 10 limited banner pulls. TL; DR: it takes a while for certain amount of dupes to get there.
To get 80 of them, you either need a total 10 dupes of an already C6 4* characters, Not C6 yet only gives 3 corals, same as 4* weapons. 15 glowy corals for 5* dupes before fully C6, only 40 after C6.
probably missed it because I assumed they're just copying hoyo again and skipped the part after the first sentence.
with the math problem is it just numbers, on paper it's better to pull. but doing 10 pulls for a char is still 10 pulls that possibly fuck over your pity, so you "saved" 80 corals but have to spend another 160 for the next 5* you actually want (and depending on the banner giving you plenty of 4* dupes on top).
Tacet field farming is required for echo material leveling up and the resource to roll for sub-stat. So I have no idea how people dismissing farming tacet field, probably early game version old opinions. You can't even convert trash echos into leveling exp anyways. I feel Wuwa is much more limited on materials to max out multiple echos.
don't think they dismiss it, the tuner mechanic is just redundant really, and being gated behind a 60 waveplate sink doesn't help either. I'm almost capped with echoes and I only do tacet fields during double events - which are also annoying since 3/4 of your daily stamina are spend on it. want/need to do that forge or exp/money? well gotta wait a week. half the cost would be a better choice imo.
I think the only part of the Inazuma archon quest that was good was the VERY end where you confront Raiden Shogun.
yeah it drags, but that part was absolute kino.
also smashing all the signora-savers hopes
till she gets resurrected in 6.0
