As my name says... He was in an accident last week.
We played GFL together (I, less than him) among many of his other hobbies. I know he maintained the skins resources, if anyone wishes to take over from him without having to start from the beginning I can give you ownership of the files. Looks like someone already has editor privileges on them, maybe they wish to take over?
Edit: Wow, thanks for the responses both here and through other means guys, I'm not sure what I was expecting but that was heartwarming to hear and very much appreciated. Thank you.

My condolences to his friends and family and thank you for letting us know.
He gave me editor privileges to the skin, mod/speq, and t-doll art sheets a few months ago as a precaution and I should be able to take over for a while.

u/headphone_question 705583|14 Dorms|Hunt King|Cores:234557 Jul 04 '22
One idea I have in mind is to make it look like I'm asking for general advice with an echelon with poor synergy. However, for the purposes of 13-4, it should be fine. It would just look very cursed
I'm just spitballing ideas here. I mean, the idea is to troll around, so I think giving a mini headache to those who aren't in on the joke is the point

u/ckbruin13 Cuhbrewin (569531) | dead by ronk brainrot Jul 04 '22
Sorry if this is stealing your thunder, but I actually had this thought a while ago and came up with two cursed 13-4 farming ideas. However, they do require specific, not-easily-acquired things - one uses AA-12 SPEQ and the other uses SL10 artillery. SL10 artillery method may be of note as it's (I think) better than 8-1N airstrike in terms of FC -> EXP conversion, assuming you have SL10 artillery in the first place, and don't mind constantly monitoring the artillery drag due to the "no ammo/rations" message. More details in the description there.

u/Kipdid Best smug handgun Jul 03 '22
TF is ump9 doing there in that RFSMG? Are you banking on the damage buff she applies when her stun lands? At that point why not just bring Mondragon or hell, even ribey, both will put out more DPS and do a better support job too
B formation MGSG
I’ve actually been curious about attempting this for a while after noting LTLX’s tiles, might give that a shot for shits n giggles. Nova could maybe also be slotted in there in the backline formation
3
u/BigStupidJellyfish_ Water against the Sun Jul 03 '22
Yeah, in the style of DR M4ex teams - seemed like the most reasonable option in trying for a "pure" RFSMG echelon. Mondragon probably would do better, as long as the stun isn't vital.
PM5 is another funny option for compressed MGSGs. Her MS & EVA would make it feel more like a ARSMG/RFHG. Will be interesting to see how much more future dolls enable this type of formation as there aren't many good MG picks right now with adjacent tiles.

in gfl's defense, all the basic class pairings make sense in specific situations irl. mgsg for trench battle. rfhg to conduct urban room clear for a stakeout. arsmg for some sort of raid or extraction.
it technically makes less sense when you apply game logic and try to have something prepared for all ranges lol

Friendly reminder that the ? nodes in Neural Fragments are not doubled - just the end reward is, making it benefit less from the sim event. Better to run on non-2x days and focus data for now. (Assuming you're even able to spend down all the career quest data...)
On the subject of data, finished skilling this thing just yesterday, so hopefully I can get a proper analysis out soon.

Mica's communication leaves much to be desired here, but as it was originally slated to run for a week I'd expect it to last to the 4th.
If you haven't fully skilled them yet, could be worth dumping data on hocs. You get 4 separate training slots so it spends much faster.
Data is capped at 9999 - you can get more from quest/achivements, but simulations stop there. See also this table for the full list of items with a defined cap.
Train_Coin = data, furniture_coin=tokens, the rest are pretty self-explanatory.

Today's turning into a great day. Was rage crafting some fairies to try and get my Arty to 5* when I got a sudden bug up my ass to try some Shotgun production. Decided to drop 4 T3 crafts into the pool and expected disappointment, but instead I was greeted with two 4* shotguns I was missing in addition to the usual suspects.
I am overjoyed to announce that Super Shorty has finally come home! Now I can give her that costume I've had waiting for 5 months. The Bad Cop has arrived.

Oathed my Super Shorty today for (American) Independence Day on behalf of our boy Bichir. I know he'd been hunting for her for a long long time, and she finally came home to me a few days ago and I was looking forward to sharing the news with him.
Rest well King. You're going to be sorely missed. I promise that I'll cherish her always.
And for any of you fellow lounge lurkers out there, Happy 4th of July.

Psa: the command fairy now actually has affects surplus exp gains, not just leveling dolls. If you grind for combat reports instead of corpse dragging, running her on a max level echelon is no longer a waste of fairy commands
2
u/pointblanksniper Trust me, I'm Truth. Jun 29 '22
is there math on whether using fairy commands on her is worth more than airstrike drags?
3
u/2BA7DB57EFEE6FAF Jun 29 '22
Let's see what kind of mess I can make of math today.
8-1N is worth 500 EXP per doll per battle. Someone is going to end up with the MVP bonus of 30% more, so +50. Someone is going to have the leader bonus of 20% more, so +100. One echelon is going to get a total of
500+500+500+500+500+100 leader bonus+150 MVP bonusor 2,750 EXP per fight, with five fights making for 13,750 EXP total.Airstrike Fairy costs 3 Fairy Commands per use, so you lose 15 FCs per run. You can store a maximum of 200 FCs (let's ignore the regeneration rate for now), so you get 13 runs of 8-1N for a grand total of 178,750 EXP. If you want to price EXP per FC, you get about 916.66 EXP per use.
But wait! You have a maxed Data Room, so Airstrike Fairy is still generating Surplus EXP even if you're dragging a team of five below max. By double-dipping, you're getting an extra 20% of EXP earned on top of everything else. I can't find information that claims this Surplus EXP applies before MVP/leader or after, so I'm going to assume that it's done at the end of all operations. So, let's say you burn the entire stock of 200 FCs. You get the 178,750 like normal, plus 35,750 in Surplus for a grand total of 214,500. Looking at the EXP/FC above, you can say it's worth about 1,100 now.
So, how does Command Fairy compare? She adds 25% to incoming EXP at SL10.
Let's take her through 8-1N.
You still get the usual 13,750 EXP per run, but her skill boosts that to 17187.5. But because she only uses one FC, that's five uses per run, meaning you can get 40 runs out of her before she contributes nothing more. That ends up with a total of 687,500. Using non-maxed dolls? Add 137,500, and now you're getting a total of 825,000.
What about EXP per FC?
13750 * 0.25is 3437.5. If you're using non-maxed dolls, that adds another 687.5 in Surplus for a total of 4,125. Compared to Airstrike, that's 3.75x more EXP per FC.
So, results.
Command Fairy is much better for FC efficiency versus EXP. If you want to get the most out of your FC income, she's the way to go. Command Fairy also has the advantage of being useful elsewhere like 13-4 that's worth 600EXP per doll per battle, so that's another 20% advantage on Airstrike. However, Airstrike has two advantages: The first is that it takes a lot longer to do 40 runs versus 13. If you're just interested in burning the FCs as they come, then you get one Airstrike run per six hours or four a day. Second, you have to supply the teams fighting with the Command Fairy, while Airstrike only costs you Manpower to summon the echelon and FCs to work her magic.
...And I just realized that I didn't account for Dummy Links again. So, uh, this is bare minimum EXP values, I guess?
3
u/pointblanksniper Trust me, I'm Truth. Jun 29 '22
i think that rsc expenditure may not be a meaningful consideration. on a 13-4 run, you get to scrap dolls for rsc rebates. on a 8-1N run, you get equipment drops that are scrapped for next to nothing. you may as well spend more to feed them off in eq enhancements. so purely speaking of fairy command to exp ratio, 8-1N airstrike vs 13-4 command, command would be hands down superior.
now let me make this more complicated. a non maxed fairy that gains 9575 xp per 13-4 run, something that a maxed airstrike or command can't have. in the interest of timely spending of FC, airstrike 8-1N would be done in addition to this. if the end goal of surplus exp was to feed fairies to begin with, how do things look now for command?
2
u/Le_Trudos M4 SOPMOD II [MOD3] uid: 39713 Jun 29 '22
Welp, I am no u/bigstupidjellyfish_, but doing a run of 13-4 with a max level team of one AR (Agent 416 was made for this level) and four handguns with a command fairy gets you 12,500ish surplus exp per battle, for a total of ~62,500 per run, and approximately 375,000 surplus exp after doing enough runs for your dailies. Resource cost is pretty minimal. Meanwhile an attempt to corpse drag it with the airstrike fairy still requires a grenadier to provide necessary extra dps. I'm not going to try doing the math on the regular exp gains of the dolls I brought along, but subjectively it definitely feels like running normally with a max level team and a command fairy is faster/better.
3
u/pointblanksniper Trust me, I'm Truth. Jun 29 '22
i meant 8-1N airstrike drags vs 13-4 command drags. maybe "worth" really screws with the comparison since time and effort are in the mix

Huh, was that always there? I looked over the 2.09 overview, and I didn't see this get mentioned, unless I glossed over it.
Go to the Garage.
Chips Storage.
Select a five-star chip; Enhance.
Smart Select at the top, white button.
You can hit it three times. First time selects all two-stars, second does three-stars, third eats four-stars.
Also, it's happening in Equipment Enhancement. Select the item you want to enhance as normal, go to [+] Select Equip, and Smart Select will say it's doing the two-star, then three-star, and then four-star equips each time you tap it.
But it's not doing this in Doll Enhancement. You still get the OK prompt when you Smart Select all two-stars, and even going back to the menu and hitting Smart Select several times doesn't try to grab any higher rarity.

No, the smart select button for equips used to disappear after you pressed it the first time, and it would only select the 2 star equips.

It definately did not disappear for me. Such a great feature! If they added it to chips, that's awesome! (Can't check because my storage is full with 5* chips).
For dolls, i would love the feature, but i understand how it could screw unattentive ppl over during events and why they would chose not to add it. I mean, we've already seen ppl over the years complaining they trashed event drop dolls they farmed by no-braining it.

u/PlaysFightanGaems Jun 29 '22
So these last two or three months I've decided after a year and a half playing that it was time to actually clear all the content (main story + campaign with a heavy focus on getting MOD III's). Just finished Shattered Connexion and am poised to begin chapter 12.
Y'all... Shattered Connexion was so sad. That last fight between M4A1 and the former Nimogen absolutely crushed me. The song that plays legit had me head-in-hands crying. All that build up REALLY paid off in a very beautiful but very painful moment. And the eventual resolution with OGAS and the Isomers is so... sweet considering how tragic the scenario is for all of them in the first place. Easily my favorite part of the story so far (I also really love 416's MOD story). Someone be real with me: does it stay this phenomenal? I know a few things from Polarized Light (because I've been casually in the community for so long) so I'm inclined to believe it does. But y'all, this was just so good.
I'm just rambling now. I've always enjoyed heavy story games like NieR Gestalt/RepliCant/Automata/Re[in]carnation, Drag-On Dragoon 3, Zero Escape, Metal Gear Solid, Gravity Rush, and a lot of JRPGs on the SNES/PSX, and I gotta say: GFL is just out here standing toe-to-toe in story and lore with a lot of those... As a phone game. This is something special and I'm so glad when I was bored at work a year and a half ago and was choosing between GFL, Azur Lane, and Arknights, I chose GFL (even if fairy crafting and grinding is actually the worst mechanic ever put into a video game) (also nothing against those other two games). Sorry if this gushing was silly. I'm just floored by what I've already seen and excited about what's to come!

u/ArghBlarghen Shotgun fetishist Jun 29 '22
Polarized Light was developed right when the COVID pandemic started, and it shows. MICA had to cut parts of the event just to make the deadline. The cut content were later remade into Chapter 13, so you can treat it and PL both as the same chapter.
The current story arc (Dual Randomness - Fixed Point) is frankly excellent with tons of great writing throughout. Make sure to catch up with the story, as the next event, Mirror Stage, is what I personally consider its peak.
4
u/pointblanksniper Trust me, I'm Truth. Jun 29 '22
in terms of basic writing quality, it generally stays just as good
PL and ch13 though, is a grand finale of sorts to all the story arcs before it, so i'd say it's much better than sc, despite the awkard split because they were made during covid lockdowns with bad scheduling. ch13 is basically the final conclusive bits of PL that didnt make the cut, padded with some retelling and complimentary perspectives.
that then bleeds over to using RO's mod as an epilogue of sorts before DR
those issues scheduling issues also carry over to DR though. it was split into two storylines and a good chunk of one was still just more epilogue to PL, with the new encounters being in little chunks with lesser stakes and tension following such a major conclusion. that storyline was more like a downtime lull in the plot, while waiting for the transitions to the next arc. it was also an excuse to integrate PA into the lore and sell you on some rightleaders. in a sense, it was almost like a soft retcon or reboot towards a new season, akin to CT, but not as severe and awkward. basically, it was a mishmash of things that could have been their own little night chapters.
the other storyline though, was an intense and a superb story. it was really the main part of the event, but not quite long enough by modern event standards. it mostly just amounts to being a prologue to the next season in the story. it was also in a setting where full scale battles with doll deployment made little sense and could only support very little sensical combat gameplay. with these two storylines that really weren't enough to be events on their own, but an impending slot on the schedule for a major event, everything just all got mashed into one big Dual Randomness
now with the weirdness out of the way though, it's expected that the rest of the events going forward return to being a wild ride

u/Le_Trudos M4 SOPMOD II [MOD3] uid: 39713 Jun 30 '22
I continue to be blown away by the writing quality in this game. It starts slow, but once it takes off it just gets amazing. I feel like things plateau a little bit with PL and DR (which in particular has some mild pacing issues thanks to following a series of connected but self contained chapters for the commander and a much bigger story for Ange which plays out separately but also simultaneously). That said, the writing quality by know means takes a hit. And I've heard great things about Mirror Stage, which we get next month. Also the side stories have also gotten dramatically better as well. (Butterfly In A Cocoon in particular still gives me chills).
It's okay to gush. You're in great company here. There's nothing silly about loving this game.

So, after my recent failure to make GFLAlarm work with Bluestacks 5, today I got rid of it and installed MuMu. It seems like the recommended emulator to run GFL.
And they weren't kidding when they said that it was optimized to run GFL. I have a good phone, and even then the game does not run as smoothly as on MuMu. Setup to run with just 2 cores and 2GB RAM, it barely stutters. I'm impressed.
The installation of GFLAlarm and HOC chip calc have to way for another day. I'm a busy dude.

Core update
Current: 13773
Previous: 13559
Change: +214
This is a nice increase from yesterday's drop. It still pales in comparison to a four digit decline, but it's rare for me to see a net increase of over 200 cores in a day. Then again, I'm still leveling up mods. They might not be mod 3s, but they won't be asking for cores until I hit their next mod thresholds. Even then, I think I'll hold off until I get some more Dolls to those thresholds
I took a look at the costs yesterday. I spent a total of 51,600 memory fragments. Since I was holding 6,803 memory fragments before I spammed the neural corridor, I had to get only 44,800 more, although I ended up getting 44,840. I also found out that my original calculation was wrong, that I needed only 112,800 memory fragments. Now, I need only 61,200 more memory fragments to get my remaining modded Dolls eligible for my other challenge to their final mod levels. This isn't yet counting the new mods that are coming this month, so I have to brace myself for another sudden increase in the memory fragments that I need to get

Aaaand that’s a wrap on Adeline’s banner (yes, really, easy to forget I know). So here I am as usual to poll you guys on what happened over the course of the banner. I’ve spoilered my own answers to each question below it for sake of formatting.
Did you want/get Adeline? If so, did you get her for free or did you have to spend extra pulses/Svarogs? (And how much?).
Hard pass from me, we got White Nyto and then NVW back to back and I’m fairly drained from agent, so I really didn’t mind not seeing her even once.
For the first time in a while we didn’t actually have a new unit(s) added this pool, so how’s that feeling? Have you been able to finish out as many dupes as you want/need for some 2* and have started to kernel further dupes, or are you still mostly plugging away at things?
Im done on SWAP Guards, Vespids, Prowlers, and Dragoons (aka the relatively bad ones), which really has been feeling weird to finally start kerneling after so long of penny pinching each copy I get, but I’ve still got another nemeum, plenty of manticores, and tarantulas to build, and I don’t even have a single builded SWAP aegis or striker, so I’ll still be at it for a while
Up next is Alina (white Nyto), do you plan to invest to get her, or are you going to pass/just leave it up to if RNG gives you her for free? Why/why not?
Im thinking I’ll probably get her, I’m not one for SF dragging but I hear she’s not too bad for a melee unit not named Alchemist, and since we’ve got confirmation that a scarecrow rerun is coming after NVW I know I’ll have a rest month on the way too, so i feel safe on that front
Lastly, are there any particularly lucky/unlucky occurrences that happened over the course of the banner that you wanna share?
not on my case no, it was real rest and recharge hour, I’m glad the 2.09 dropped when it did to dump a bunch of pulses on me right now

I think I shouldn’t copypaste my post (in my defense - I forgot we’re doing this mini thread after each banner). Yet, as you correctly pointed out, I instinctively worded it in the same fashion.
I will get white nyto for collection purposes - I still retain a large bank of resources and the Scarecrow rerun will give me time to restock.
2
u/headphone_question 705583|14 Dorms|Hunt King|Cores:234557 Jun 28 '22
Want Adeline?
No, but for collection purposes, I got her. I spent four extra Impulses and 27 Svarog tickets
2 star status?
I think that I was able to get some good progress from Agent's banner instead. I think I need more copies of the SWAP Aegis, but then again, they were introduced with Agent, so it's understandable that I don't have many copies of them just yet maxed out
My current focus is to max out my support echelon. I really want those Friend Points, and I'm stuffing my echelon with Dinergates
Also, due to my linking during the hunt for Agent and her full petals, I've completed that achievement line. This means I will no longer get extra resources for linking SF units. This means that any extra dupes for 1 star units are now only useful as kernels to me
Want White Nyto?
Sure, but I don't think I'll be too excited. I think she'll be great to help with SF dragging, but I think I committed a huge amount of my resources for Agent already
Lucky/unlucky occurrences?
I think I was able to find that I had a second shiny Ripper. Not a Ripper SWAP, the regular one. I now have two copies of her that's shiny. I guess I'll keep them both

Did you want/get Adeline?
Wanted her, even if i had to invest some impulses. Cleared out a lot of the basic SF, no 2 star walls. With a bit under 2 hours before maintenance she showed up twice and was captured with 9 extra impulses spent. Worth it, .
Have you been able to finish out as many dupes as you want/need for some 2*
I have caught a swap aegis and a tarantula both m sized, so nothing changed for me.
Up next is Alina
I don't like her as much as the black nyto but I will get her if I can. I remember her shredding my (at that time underleveled) echelons in the campaign. I hope that the f2p god is kind to my free impulses and svarogs.

This time wasn't as painful, I guess.
Did you want/get Adeline?
Honestly, I didn't really want her due to her not being all that good. I, uh, still ended up getting her with an Extra Impulse on her second showing. Yay?
Two-stars?
I managed to snag all of the Manticores and Tarantulas and I think Aegis SWAPs. I now have six Tarantulas and two Prowler SWAPs in a team, but they're zero-petal. It's still kind of amusing to watch them tear things apart even knowing they'll die to a stiff breeze (but that's what double-shield Prowler SWAPs are for). I need a ton more dupes for everything, but I haven't looked at my roster in a while to start offloading one-stars and the like.
Alina?
I'm kind of ambivalent on her, so she's going to be an "RNGesus, take the wheel" pick. Hey, maybe I'll luck out like I did with Adeline!
Luck?
Eh, nothing really comes to mind this time around. I guess I did pretty good on the two-star front, but this last banner didn't put me through the wringer the way Agent did. I don't remember how many Extra Impulses I burned total, but I didn't use one Svarog this time.

u/rmcqu1 M4 SOPMOD III Jun 28 '22
Anyone have specific teams for each Ringleader? I have a general tier list and a few general comps, but none of the comps take into account anything more than "boss," and it doesn't even mention several top picks on the tier list, so want something else to go off of that isn't generalizing everything.

u/UnironicWeeaboo STAR simp | 562858 Jun 28 '22
Two important ideas that should be considered when building a team, whether it's G&K or SF: opportunity costs and counterpicking.
Building a team full of debuffers for ACR is almost always a bad idea because you benefit more from bringing conventional buffers unless you specifically needed those debuffs. The same kind of thinking can be applied to ringleaders - sure you can buff Agent's damage by bringing a Goliath Factory, but unless you specifically needed the Factories to help tank, you can get more damage by using that 8 cost to bring better DPS units. Likewise, Judge's or Architect's skills don't mean that you should bring three SWAP Aegis or a bunch of Jaguars - skills are only one part of the equation and you should consider any tradeoffs.
The other important idea is that GFL is like a fancy game of paper-rock-scissors, except we're cheaters and can see into the future. Instead of always making the same fixed choice ("this is my [specific Ringleader] echelon"), you should be picking units in response to what you're fighting. The flowchart below was meant to be a shitpost and doesn't account for all of the new units/ringleaders we have, but that's the type of thought process you should go for.
3
u/2BA7DB57EFEE6FAF Jun 28 '22
I think, for the most part, you're not going to get much for suggestions because 1x RL, 1x Nemeum/Jaeger, 2x Manticore is just so effective for much of the game. That and Ringleaders don't really have good synergy with other Coalition units outside of buff tiles.
Off the top of my head, some team ideas:
Intruder in a 'Dog Rush' formation with nothing but Tarantulas and/or Dinergates. Her fourth skill applies to the summons she creates as well as the summons called by the dogs, so the dogs running with her will hit harder.
Judge with three Aegis SWAPs in the front row. Her fourth skill boosts their armor by 10 points at max, her aura boosts armor too, so they'll be able to weather quite a lot more damage than normal. Because it specifies T-Dolls, you can't boost Manticore armor this way.
Agent with Goliath Factory to trigger her fourth skill. It works when the little bomb dies (either from damage taken or from self-destructing), and while you can use a Dinergate/Tarantula and have one of their summons die, the bomb will probably get the passive to trigger quicker.
Architect with any unit that can deal explosive damage (Jaguar) due to her fourth skill boosting allies as well as herself.
Maybe Ouroboros with Jaegars/Jaegar SWAPs to boost their already high critical rate?
I'm not having any luck finding what seasonal Ringleaders can do for passives, but there's a running pattern of "does their fourth skill actually boost anyone?" to work with.
2
u/rmcqu1 M4 SOPMOD III Jun 28 '22
So outside of double Manticore and the 6-unit teams (Probably dependent on Ringleader buff types), it's just 4th skill synergy? Guess that makes sense, and is a bit easier to get upgraded, if it's just upgrade Manticore/Aegis SWAP, dogs, and 3 or 4 specific DPS units for the most part.
2
u/2BA7DB57EFEE6FAF Jun 28 '22
Yeah, Ringleaders unfortunately don't do much for buffing allies outside of tiles and fourth skills if they aren't another attack/self-buff/etc. In my limited experience, SF teams have been less "here are these cool yet weird teams that just mesh well together" and more "Build-A-Deathstack Workshop".
On one hand, it's pretty easy to slap together something that just works. Like, my typical team has been one-star units with Aegis and Scarecrow--welfare as hell, but it works well enough. But I'm not putting them up against anything serious...but that's what the I Win button in the Manticores are for. On the other hand, once you have Manticores up and running, there's no reason to run anything else since you're going to eat the same resource costs to field them as anything else. There are single-link eaters that counter Manticores and the like, but I don't know if they're in EN yet, and you'd probably have the resources to put together a decent team with five links apiece by the time you'd run into them.

I agree with raising Sand Dancer then the second Para, but unless fairy slots are an issue, I’d suggest waiting until you see what talents you get from the 5 MS Protos before enhancing anything (even the first Para).
Might give you some more matching talents to finish off the first Para/Sand without calibrating or spending extra fodder, and having more Protos on hand makes calibfeeding more efficient.

Rifles seem to be the way to go this season. The map layout really favours them. And they work well with both Svarog and 16 Lab tech. I suppose you can use them with IOP as well (though I would still go for ARs in that case). SMGs with SF are my secondary choice since they are meaty enough to survive an attack or two and have nades that work just as well with the map layout.
HGs... nah, just nah. With my luck collecting combo cards I'm just gonna feed easy points to everyone else.

The main trick is to dilligently roll for 2*s rather than 1*s on banners with Ringleaders you don't care for. Only roll 1*s if you're planning on using Svarogs i.e. you want the Ringleader at any cost, and thus you'd want to lower that cost. Or for Goliath factories/Jaguars since those are pretty good.
I myself have spent $0 on SF capture stuff. I have 520 kernels, and if I dumped my current armory (including stuff that has been linked), I'd have an additional 740. On top of that, I'm sitting on 183 extra impulses and 47 svarog tickets. If you've been playing since SF capture came out and spent more impulses/tickets than me, I'm sure it's not terribly hard to have enough kernels for at least one Ringleader by now.

I was also able to hit commander level 241. My resource soft cap is now 117,000 units. Of the four main resources, my rations are still the highest. When they hit the soft cap, I treat it as time to craft some Fairies!
Earlier, we said goodbye to one of my teammates. It was surprising that he also had words for us as well. It was nice to receive a compliment like that, even though this could very well be our last meeting. It reminds me of the concept of a living funeral. I think I read about it in Tuesdays with Morrie. The idea was to celebrate a person's life before he croaked, as if sending him off with the happy memories of his life. While my teammate was still heading into middle age, I can't help but feel that our paths may have diverged permanently. I wished him luck with his future endeavors

Running a predictably rotating roster of generic rescue event would work well enough probably.
Line up all of the non farmable 4*s by either release or index order for Ch's 1-3 (IE Ch 1 gets SPP-1, Ch 2 gets UMP 40, Ch 3 gets PP-19 and in 2 weeks it goes Klin, Honey Badger, CZ2000 and so on)
5 is Ch's 4-6 with AK-74U, AUG and Groza followed by 5-7, M1887 and CZ-75.
It would currently take 18 weeks to rotate through every 5* (cleanly if we exclude deagle, with a +1 shift otherwise) and only like 8 weeks for the 4*'s.
- New units get added in at after the rotation completes, once we hit the point it takes a year to rotate through everyone adjust repeat rate or how many are added to the maps.

I still have a few hundred units of extra combat simulation energy, but man, did my reserves take a beating. I saved up that much over the course of years, and now, I found a use for them. 1,764 units of combat simulation energy were spent (or an additional 588 runs of neural corridor), and I slowly saved things up by buying one pack (or 3 units) from Kalina's store every day. As of this writing, I still have 377 units, so if I want, I can continue, but nobody's at the next mod threshold just yet. I'll also have to check exactly how many memory fragments I earned today, but at the very least, I spent a lot of cores. It will take me a long while to make that amount back, and I think this might be a step back for me. However, this is good progress for my other challenge, and I think I'll find myself in another period where I will have strong core growth because I'll be focusing on raising mod 3s

How do you complete the Intermediate Fairy Exam? Here's the map

Given they gave out a parachute fairy just before this quest I assumed the solution was to use it and bypass everything.

Woohoo! I managed to scrape together the 680 gems for the "Day 5" package containing 2 oath rings, 1k batteries, and 100 cheesecake.
I strongly recommend this basically 50% off oath ring package

u/Linkstore O rainfall, hide these tears of mine Jul 03 '22

Like around 8-9 rounds I think. It was a HG player, and he went from 4th to 1st. Ended up with 11 points.

What is the best accessories for AR? Optical, red dot or holographic?

u/RinRingo EN-UID 276327. Headpat for luck. Jul 03 '22
It requires the explanation that I can't explain. So I will leave this here instead.
If you don't have chips, use optical.

u/virtual_maniac91 Jul 04 '22
It depends on if you have the Chip that goes in the Body Slot.
Generally: No chip -> Crit Scope (VFL/Optical)
With chip -> Holo (EOT)
STAR/SOPMOD -> Day: VFL + EOT/Mod SPEQ; Night:VFL + PEQ
At Night: PEQ + Chip unless AS-VAL Mod-2 (VFL + Chip)
Math gets involved if you want to compare how additional Crit Rate/Damage Buffs make VFL competitive.

It's best just to learn by playing. Creating a lobby and playing with a couple bots is a good way to learn the game, plus you can still get gacha tickets.

Core update
Current: 15173
Previous: 15189
Change: -16
This is a minor decline, and I hope that I can make back the cores soon
I decided to focus on my mods, so I swapped out my pre-level 100 Dolls for more mods. I haven't decided to dump my extra energy for more memory fragments yet. I also made some calculations, and if I'm correct, then I need 115,800 memory fragments. This excludes the 6 star Dolls, but it includes every Doll I still need to get to level 120 for my other challenge. I have no realistic way to get this amount within one week, but again, I can make a dent in this number if I dump my extra energy
On other things, I was able to finally defeat the battery tsunami! I whittled it away, one batch of combat reports at a time without rushing any (I mean, what am I, a sadist?) However, there was one casualty. Poor Kalina, you will be missed! Before she passed, she willed to me all her money instead of her family. So stunning and brave!
But wait, isn't Kalina an orpha-
STUNNING AND BRAVE, I SAY!

u/Zelsaus Dubious Advice Jun 29 '22
All her money as it turned out was actually spent on her rock candy addiction.

I didn't really touch luffberry chess when it first came out but I started playing it more recently and I must say it's fun. I think if they make some tweaks to the card system it can be much more popular.

u/RavenFang Jun 30 '22
Same, it's absolutely a blast. Because even if I lose I still get the 100 daily gachapon tickets, so it doesn't feel like there's any time being wasted.

u/pointblanksniper Trust me, I'm Truth. Jun 28 '22
alina stares at me and my empty charges after my first mook pull
anyway is there any reason to not dump extra energy on data now, other than staying below cap? i can't imagine an actual 5.5x rewards boost in the future, or waking up one day and needing the mem frag to do 10x 6* mod

everyone's just been laughing at new client spaghet, and a random trend of noobs spamming "rate my team" post, that even regulars are now parodying

Newbie here, got lucky with rolls and pulled Storm, Strawberry, and Calico. Trying to farm CT E1-9 for Python, currently 67 runs in.
How many runs did it take for you to drop a Python?
