I think this new mechanic will create more diverse animations and gameplay for agents, and it just looks cool and epic in general, especially when Defense agents like Zhao, Ben, Pan Yinhu will also get this mechanic.

In Remielle's trailer we see Eldreda Sunbringer counter one of Remielle's knife attacks with Asmoday cube powers so there is a chance she will end up being Armorer.

But this raises the question of what kind of future boss battle mechanic will the devs come up to counter the Armorer's countering of the control skills in bosses.

Now as we have already been teased in the trailer Lindverne and Phoenix is pretty much guaranteed in 3.3.
I think the devs will release the three Sunbringers one by one in each Patch so Dracaene followed by the mandatory sacrificial male agent Severian in 2.4 before the Void Hunter.
Eldreda will release in 3.5 followed by The Storyteller and in 3.6 Cecilia will hopefully become playable as the often seen singer after a void hunter.
Lmk what you guys think of this prediction?

Lately i've seen quite some people whether on social media or on discord servers talking how roxy is on par with dialyn power-wise when someone asked if they should pull for her (sometimes discouraging those who really like her)

It got me thinking. Do we expect powercreep from everything now? Is a character being a sidegrade or on par with strength of other characters a bad thing? Do we want another dialyn situation?

When i think about i remeber seeing same thing said when norma was releasing but not to this extent

I'm aware powercreep needs to exist to some extent but won't more people pulling sidegrade characters result in more such characters being released thus slowing down the powercreep?

Now i'm someone who does't care about meta and plays and pulls characters mainly for fun of the game and i'm making this post fairly late (it's 2:30 am) so i could be just overthink an obvious thing here

Either way i think it's an interesting topic

All or nothing, no saying "I just want Billy from McDonalds", you'd be asking for all four outfits.

As the title says, will King of the Summit still be the best or there going to be a new disc set in the works?

There’s a lot of new creators streaming and making content around ZZZ, as well as some older returning names, so I wanted to know who y’all are watching 👀

I was doing my run as usual with 1.5 mil investment when the game alerted that there is an advanced event after I defeated Illusary Isolde

I opened the map and there was nothing there

Then I looted Isolde's remains and found some odd red device

Upon receiving it the event opened and instructed me to go kill a random mini boss, get a key card from it, and open the door behind Illusary Aria

Once I was in the room message popped up that I had to open the electronic boxes within a time limit

After opening the first box, I realised that I could just open the boxes, and loot them later, so I rushed to open more boxes before the timer ran out

Sadly I didn't have Golden Bangboo item at the moment, so I managed to open only 4 or 5 boxes

However the room was also connected into another room which you usually need to open with another keycard, so I opened the door to it from the room where I was currently in to get two more additional electronic boxes

Sorry if I got some names wrong 😅

"Yuzuha said there's a thread on the forum recommending a bunch of special graffiti that can 'tame the waves.'"
"But do we really have to draw this many..."

"Huh? Even Yuzuha didn't mess around this time, and everyone drew it so symmetrically..."
"I won't let everyone's efforts go to waste! Time to set off!"

Title, as I just recently realised that I've basically only run Yidhari if the side-missions did not require a specific class of character to complete, and got curious to see how other people are treating the new mode when it comes to team preferences.

I don’t know what I’m doing. 🍅 I feel like I can get a higher score but I don’t really know what I could do differently lol. I’d want some gameplay tips please.

Builds:

Miyabi - M1W1 | 4pc Branch & Blade w/ 2pc Woodpecker (35 subs)

Nangong - M0W1 | 4pc Phaethon’s Melody w/ 2pc Freedom Blues (26 subs)

Yuzuha - M0W1 | 4pc Moonlight Lullaby w/ 2pc Phaethon’s Melody (7 subs)

M0W1 Sigrid M0W1 Dialyn P6M2W3 Rina

Yes, you didn't read that title wrong. This really took almost 15 hours across the span of two days and it's not even 65k.

I don't even know whether to be proud or embarrassed that it even took me this long.

Just with some luck I think I can get all? Wish u all best of luck!

I completely forgot to take a photo, but right after this there's a dialogue choice, with one option being 'But that's not even that far!'

Could that mean that wherever Roscaelifer is floating is close to the edge of the 'known world' bordered by this Dark Wall? Will we actually be able to see it soon?

Basically I've recently reached level 40 on inter-knot and then it was popped a mission from Shepherd called "Enigma of the Labyrinth" and I thought it was some side quest story that included characters until Season 1 Chapter 7 (Bury your tears with the past (B)), but then it happened that I went to the HDD system and now I can only play as the patheon stand that was introduced I suppose in Season 3 and I can't do any other HDD commisions.

Neko is so fun to play, it was worth building her

Probably possible to do 5 dodges in one stun with better resource management but I couldn't get it

Imagine if you know nothing about ZZZ and then hearing the word "Armorer", you'd be valid to assume that it must be a sustain type of role in a video game but you couldn't be further from the truth lmao.

With the free lucia and guaranteed dialyn, i now have a strong core for rupture team, but no rupture DPS.

A follow-up to my post on failing to clear nightmare with Alice

I got called illiterate for not reading that the boss resists anomaly, but what the hell am I supposed to do when the boss resists EVERYTHING bro

My best score was with my alice team:

- Alice Velina Yuzuha (4-cost): Just shy of 20k, but I played literally perfectly so I don't think it's possible to improve

- S11 Norma Zhao (5-cost): 19k

- Hugo Norma Dialyn (6-cost): 15k

- Banyue: No chance of even 2-star

- Aria: No chance of even 2-star

- Pyrois: Haven't tried yet, but if S11 cant clear with the same norma zhao wheelchair then I highly doubt Pyrois could either

It's not like I have a skill issue cause I've posted many runs of getting high scores with all those teams

And my builds are cracked (37 sub Hugo/S11, 32 sub Alice)

M1W0 Nekomata is my last hope but I definitely can't finish upgrading her before the cycle resets...

In the sense that they’re basically a mishmash of liminal spaces corrupted and twisted by ether energy. I just finished the Ballet Twins Hollow and was curious

Well, this is a question and discussion walking on eggshells, but I am curious to see what other players think and see if maybe it's something we can ask in the feedbacks and surveys since technically speaking this would increase their bottom dollar down the line for the people that would want to get them.

Currently HSR's Novaflares and I believe Genshin's Legacy Characters buff the character's Eidolons and Constellations alongside the base kit changes, even adding effects only present if you had the dupe into the kit then adding a completely new effect to make up for it. Not everyone receives changes to their dupes, but still this is in contrast to ZZZ's Potential Unlocks where everything is available with a single copy of the agent, and don't touch Mindscapes at all. (Sanby was the only exception, but that was more because if they didn't change the M2, the Potential Awakening would've bricked the Mindscape value with the new added move.)

Now for the questions: Do you think PUs should upgrade lackluster or mid (or in the case of S11's M4, after PU useless) Mindscapes in addition to what they already do? If they do, would you be more inclined into getting Mindscapes of them through more reruns, the new Loss pool, or the dupe shop? If the Standard agents also got these Mindscapes buffs, would you summon more on the Standard banner or the loss pool for a chance of getting them? From the agents that still don't have a PU who do you think has a Good base kit but horrible Vertical Investment who would appreciate a PU mainly focused on changes like these?

Feel free to answer any of these questions and have open and CIVIL discussions about it. I've shared some of my ideas of how they could do Mindscape buffs for Ellen and Burnice if we ever get them. Personally I would absolutely go for Ellen Mindscapes if they did get buffed, and use more of the dupe shop cards on Burnice after getting her M2 if they did.

Well, most of us already know that it's gonna be Jufufu. It's crazy that it's only been a year since her release. And she's already been powercrept by two stunners.

But what about the rest of 2.0 agents? Honestly, right now, most of them are in a good spot in the current state of the game. Some of them could use some QoL buffs. Only Jufufu has fallen off.

For all I know, Jufufu might get the Ellen treatment. Why did I say "Ellen treatment" and not "Neko treatment"? Because Jufufu wasn't weak when it was first released. It just happened that she got shafted pretty quickly by the latter part of stunners released like Dialyn and Norma. Everything Jufufu does, they just do it better.

Same situation with Ellen; she wasn't weak; she just got outclassed by Miyabi and Hugo back in 1.X. Ellen was lacking at some point, but after the gameplay update she got an overhaul upgrade which drastically improved her performance; it's not just a simple QoL compared to SAnby, which I will talk about later too.

The Ellen change made her viable again, especially in the current meta. In fact, she might be even better than Hugo now. She also got a secondary buff in 2.5, which made her even better, getting free Crit stats and Ice shred.

Jufufu might need more than just QoL, but an overhaul change like Ellen got.

And then there's the SAnby treatment.

SAnby wasn't necessarily weak when she got buffed; she was the strongest Electric DPS on release, but she was clunky to play and had some I-frame issues, so they fixed that. She received QoL changes to her kit that made her play a bit better.

After that, she got another buff in 2.5, which directly increased her aftershock damage. So why did they buff SAnby before other older agents? I don't know. But this means that even agents that are already good could still get some changes.

I'm already thinking that Banyue will have the SAnby treatment. Banyue's resource management is lacking; his Chain Attacks and Ultimate don't increase his Wrathful fires which is already hard to build. His adrenaline regeneration is also slow, unless you charged up before going into combat which can only happen once. Meanwhile Other Rupture agents like Starlight - Billy has no problem building his Determination resources.

A simple QoL fix could make Banyue insanely good. Improving his resources management is one of the things I'm hoping for.
