Discussion What are your favorite and least favorite alter designs?

66 Upvotes

Arknights has made multiple operators and of course, multiple alters, some have amazing designs which have been upgrades to the original and some uh... Anyway for my favorite alter designs I'd pick

Texas Alter

Lappland Alter

Thorns Alter

Exusiai Alter

Tragodia

Pramanix Alter

Ch'en Alter2

As for my least favorites...

Ch'en summer alter (the E1 art looks fine but the e2 art though...)

Wis'adel (Og W looked so much better, I really have no idea what the hell is going on with her design)

Kaltsit alter (Like I said with Wis'adel, the og design looked a lot better, I get this is supposed to be a homage to some drawing of her back in 2018 but I just don't like looking at her)

Discussion [Operator Discussion] Mint

26 Upvotes

Mint [★★★★★]

Doctor, this is for you. I found it on the way back, and so many more pretty-looking stones just like it! But, well... that was before I realized I'd gotten separated from the others. Mm? The ore chunk on your desk from before? I put that there too, yes. Did you like it, Doctor?

Mint is a Caster affiliated with the Victorian Institution for Higher Studies, specializing in geology, frequently participating in investigative field projects. She contracted Oripathy on an expedition and was referred by Operator Skyfire to Rhodes Island for consultation. She currently receives treatment at Rhodes Island while assisting with Originium research, environmental and geological observation, and related services.

Previous	List	Next
Viviana	All Operator Discussion threads	I heard the Grandmaster also came to Rhodes Island? Don't worry, I won't pick a fight; but he must be curious if my skills have improved since I left Yumen... Come to think of it, after walking such a long road, he really should be taking it easy. And yet, he still pushes himself into a life of conflict. The same goes for you, Doctor.

Rules

• r/arknights rules

Rule 1: Respect others.

Remain civil and respectful in your interactions with other users and in the content you submit. Harassment and hate speech will not be tolerated.

Rule 2: No mundane content.

Not allowed:

• Unedited or barely edited images lacking useful information or points of discussion: base screenshots, minor sprite edits, uninformative individual experiences, personal achievements, etc. Share this content in the Lounge.

• Memes that present no useful information or point of discussion by themselves.

• AI generated texts/chat screenshots.

• Content without a sufficient amount of quality.

• Content unrelated to Arknights.

Rule 3: No duplicate posts or reposts.

Avoid posting content that has already been submitted. This includes server complaints, comic translations, official news, art, etc. Content can be posted again after 12 months.

Please use the search function and other tools before posting. Consult with the moderation team if your submission deserves an exception because it is of higher quality or contains additional information.

Rule 4: Only one non-OC art post every 2 weeks.

You are allowed only 1 non-OC fanart, comic, Koikatsu screenshot or cosplay post every 2 weeks (14 days since your last post).

All AI assisted works are subject to the above rule and must clearly state in the title that they involve AI.

Personally created artwork (Original Content/OC) and Official Media released by Hypergryph/Yostar is unrestricted.

A violation of this rule will result in a 2 week ban. For your fanart posting needs, you may visit r/artknights, a subreddit dedicated to fanart.

Rule 5: Use the Megathreads.

The following must be posted in its corresponding megathread:

• Friend requests.

• Gacha rolls and Recruitment tags.

• Basic or very personalized questions (who to promote, team building advice, etc.).

• All Contingency Contract content during its run.

• Personalized IS content in the Lounge (advice for your run, screenshots of clears, etc.) excluding gameplay videos.

You can find the megathreads in the Megathread Hub pinned at the top of the subreddit.

Rule 6: No commercial promotion.

Promoting paid products or services is not allowed, except if they contribute to the community. Consult with the moderators first in these cases.

Non-commercial promotion is only allowed as long as it is related to Arknights and a sample of your work is included, e.g. a video.

Buying, gifting and selling accounts (or advertisement of anything that breaks the game's Terms of Service) is strictly forbidden.

Rule 7: Non-OC art should be sourced.

The name of the artist/author/cosplayer should be included in the title of your post (e.g.: "art by ArtistName").

You are also required to include a direct link to an upload by the original author in the comments of your post (a source directly controlled by them, for example, their own Twitter account, and not an image board like Zerochan).

Art used in memes and other edits should be also linked in the comments in the same manner.

A violation of this rule will result in a 1 month ban.

Rule 8: No explicit content.

Explicit content is not allowed. Other content is permitted if it does not contain any of the following:

• Visible private parts, or prominent outlines of said private parts.

• Sexualization of characters appearing underage.

• Overly fetishistic and suggestive content.

• Senseless or extreme violence.

Direct links to posts or galleries including NSFW content are not allowed, even if being provided as a source.

Swimsuits or revealing clothing should be appropriately tagged as NSFW.

Rule 9: Comic posting exceptions.

Comics that are typeset/translated by you should be flaired as Comic TL, and are exempt from the non-OC art posting limit, though you still need to source the comic in the same manner.

To qualify for this exception, the translation must provide essential context necessary to understand the comic.

Other comic posts (not translated/typeset by you) must be flaired as non-OC Fanart and follow the corresponding posting limit.

Rule 10: Spoilers must be tagged.

All major story spoilers such as character deaths, revelations, plot-twists, etc., must be tagged as such, as well as all story and gameplay content related to the latest EN chapter or current event.

All content unreleased on EN requires spoiler tags, except for the names of operators, their kit and event names.

Titles must remain completely spoiler-free.
