>>833133 I swear some people just INSIST on ruining games for themselves for absolutely no good reason.

>>833137 Honestly same, despite being a footfag I think i'm skipping all of 2.2, and then Zhao is cool I guess but I'm waiting for a particuarly devious rugpull on her, and then there's nothing. Hopefully ye shunguang is pure sex when she turns around or they've got a s-rank corin or lucy in the works or lucia is hot cause damn I might just hunker down and go crazy in 3.0 at this rate

>>833129 You mean the story? Well, it will be focused on Obol and something bad will happen to that military lady.

>>833133 Yuzuha is so fucking good, I am stunned every time

>>833146 Damn, both 2.2 AND 2.3 will be obol patches? holy fuark

>>833132 I have M1 Ellen so I had no reason to pull Hugo in the first place And I never use Burnice in any of my anomaly teams anymore

>>833142 Why would you double up on ATK buffers? The point of using Yuzuha with Billy is to active his additional ability, but Nicole can do that easily too I only see Yuzuha being useful on Billy with someone like Trigger or Ju Fufu on the side

WHAT the actual fuck is Nicole? She is 4k points above Bibi or Nagi on the Miasmic Fiend node, this bitch is spamming Corruptions like an anomaly agent, damn. I haven't optimized the dancing hoes nor the Butcher yet.

>>833163 Def shred is stupid and the alice shill buff gives a bunch of it for free so yeah nicole is the devs favorite a rank 10 patches in a row

>>833163 Artful is stacking with her shred which results in higher and higher gains as you approach 100%

>>833097 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckl_IwBRLYA Seems to work. I never lost a 50/50 until i paused using her for everything. Bad move. Got Knotted..

She deserves ALL the love

>>833163 >that shifu score So I'm not the only one having shit score with her. Like how do you do damage with her? I would at least expect 30k but I'm sweating my ass off and I can barely reach 24k.

>>833172 She is born in a rich family so not really.

>>833165 I think she also builds A LOT of anomaly, I got like 4 free corruptions from her. You know what's even sillier? Yuzhua and Nicole are both running swing jazz so I can technically push this further with Astral Voice. >>833167 Even then she shouldn't be trumping Miyabi that much, that's the only limited ball I have >>833174 I mean if a limited is breaking past 20k with ease on a non-shill node then that's a good limited. Shifu has no direct shilling buffs nor bosses this DeadAss cycle, neither does Trigger nor Jufufu.

>>833185 Even without her anomaly application simply swapping to her and doing a single basic attack while Alice is busy with her charged attack is just free damage

>>833185 I forgot to add the Dancing Hoes are hard shilling Ice as they are weak to it and the buff is aimed towards Ice and Electric. That's probably the Chudgo-shill node.

>>833208 My hugo/trigger/lycaon team scored 33k where my yixuan/panda/trigger team scored 26k I don't have fufu and no yixuan ball but I dont have hugo ball either. I feel yixuan really wants a premium panda replacement in the future to cement her as miyabi status, cause she's still super strong and clears but she doesn't really shit out the damage I expected she would even though I skipped her best partner and my astra is somewhere else

>>833174 It's kind of an annoying fight and like the other anon mentioned; she lacks shill buffs this time around. That being said, if you optimize your rotations you can go much higher.

>>833230 Is the decibel gen with ultimate res shred not amazing on her?

>>833118 I try to use Hugo whenever possible, he's probably my favourite agent to play just because there is zero downtime and there's always interactivity with optimising stunner buttons for as many TOTALIZE as possible and keeping track of parries at all times. I am also running him on a probably very cope build with Gilded blossom at 2p sets, but it only makes it more fun to still get clears, if I rolled his ball and switched to h*rmone I'd probably be speedrunning Shiyu and getting 40k+ on every non-anomaly DA boss. And while I've been benching Burnice a lot ever since 1.3 she's still fun to play and great at sub-DPS, and also she's the kind of agent who I'd be happy seeing on my roster even if she had Euler tier meta relevance in a few years

>>833207 I mean I do that with Alice/Miyabi as well, that's how you "optimize" Miyabi anyways, but Miyabi takes like 2 basic attack chains to build a Frost proc, while with Alice/Nicole I do not care about overlappping anomalies for disorder procs and just fully charge the Nicole EX, thus keeping the shred def up while the charge basic lands. >>833221 Yeah that's what I mean, I played like ass and got 22k because Yixuan is that good, maybe with proper rotations and shit I can get 25k or more. Take into account the twins are Hugo's shill boss as the boss debuff will proc whenever you "stun" the things (or slowly kill clones) and I think Hugo's totalize can keep that up for the whole time, same reason why I can get 23k with Yanagi on the current butcher, she can cheat disorder procs same way as Hugo can cheat stuns.

>>833236 Shifu doesn't care about DEF shred at all since she's Rupture. The buff that improves almost all attacks by 30% extra DMG is probably the best one, but it's still nothing compared to the previous shill buffs she's gotten.

>>833145 I think I'm with you. Outside of Comano and SBILLY I don't want to do anything but pull agents I already have. I'm thankful for the skips but it's still kinda ass, especially after SEED. >>833158 Billy needs all the help he can get. I think Astra might be enough as he is, Yusuha only helps marginally, maybe I need to also throw Trigger on him but I was struggling to clear endgame with him ever since the boss buffs. Maybe he needs SAnby's ball to funtion well or something. I don't know.

>>833249 Res shred is not the same as DEF shred

>>833163 you should be able to go much higher with just yuuzha and nicole, at least 40K even if you have no sigs

>>833259 Astra + Nicole / Trigger is his best team But Yuzuha + Nicole / Trigger enables defensive assist spam for certain bosses You don't need limited engines to clear, Marcato / Brimstone / his signature are enough This is a 35K run using his signature www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0VZxUARbxk

>>833153 I should say that my source is pretty much just bunch of leakers speculating based on what they have, it might be just that 2.2 will be very thick in plot.

>>832909 >Also keep in mind Jane has to time her basic attacks just like S11 for efficient anomaly buildup otherwise mashing on her literally builds the anomaly bubble slow. not only has bro successfully dunning-kreuger'd himself into thinking he knows how to play the game from reading a TIER LIST but he is literally just spouting bullshit that isn't even true. jane has no just-frames or timing mechanics in her kit whatsoever, unless you count just fucking dodging as one. i fucking can't stand midwit retards like this who can't think for themselves, actually a scourge on humanity.

>>833261 I'm not sure if Shifu cares about RES shred specifically if I am being honest, but even if she did the current buffs still have nothing on shit like pic related for her.

*yes*

>>833274 >i fucking can't stand midwit retards like this who can't think for themselves, actually a scourge on humanity. You know very well we're getting much, much more like that in new generations

>>833289 I wish there was "pure" combat content, without any additional mechanics or shill buffs, VR training is kinda is that content but its hard to gauge team performance without any scoring

>>833302 @grok what is this guy implying

also new BREAD u fucks yeah get ur ritualposts ready!!!! >>833317 >>833317 >>833317 >>833317
