New 3D gacha from Koreans, not an open world but a mix of small-medium-big areas. Voiced in Korean, Japanese and English >Mostly female cast - only 4 males (two of them are 4*), devs said they wont add any more males. >100% banner, hard pity at 90 pulls
>>565984047 What's the deal with Penny? One guy says she's trash, another insists in ChatGPT English that she's in fact so OP that she ascended the elemental resistance system...
>1. Attack power is not affected by the stagger gauge. >2. Skill level affects stagger gauge >3. Ultimates and skills are also affected. So getting better gear doesn't work except boots?
looking at her kit, she looks like a sidegrade to A4 Francis with the bonus of being able to run both and be invincible with shields and heals. Maybe her artifact will make her a lot stronger though.
>>565990057 Holy Google translate. It's not affected by the attack stat since "groggy" is a separate stat. It is however affected by damage multipliers. Don't be a retard and start building your destroyers properly. Also Mina is broken because the clones mimicking her every move results in her base groggy value being either doubled or tripled depending on how did they code minions.
>>566002435 Yes on 13 you can get 3 Masked Raccoonie on first floor + Shademask as miniboss, the first stage layout always has the same mobs it seems https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2QPavAg5Mw
>>566010617 If you have a standard or BP one for her to borrow yeah. The devs were fully aware that fighter is the brick class right now so they basically turned Mina into the fire destroyer with how the minion mechanic multiplies her stagger damage and she has pretty much full ult uptime with -45% skill cooldown.
>>566012831 Narae gets possessed and forced to cum nonstop until she passes out off-screen. Aside that the event story just teased Nagi and Narae, and some eeeeevil woman NPC.
well the shitty youtube auto translate says you reroll the stages with midpoint bosses that start at 13 17 and 20 would be nice to know what page he is pulling his data from
>cleared wind shill rift 22 without jiwon with a minute to spare >barely cleared fire shill rift 19 with mina flare Did they ramp up the difficulty or what?
>>566033748 Mina-Francis-Yeonhwa. Flare is a brick on that team because Mina is functionally a Destroyer thank to her ult multiplying her base stagger.
By the way have anyone tried running Mina-Francis-Angel yet to be able to capitalize on the frequent burst phases? I don't have Angel yet.
I don't want to deal with the max 4 gold monster, so I want to make simple blue with 2 gold without using stones so I'll have to make a fodder with 2 gold trait, combine it with the monster I want, and to make that fodder to blue I have to keep spending puree and gamble for it to rank up or not rank down, and then gamble 50/50 with the monster I want and if I fail I repeat again
>>566057952 I just realize if I lose 50/50 my main monsterling is gone and it's a huge pain to get another to blue fucking gooks they're still doing this gear destruction on upgrade shit
>>566086847 >>566086901 It is truly challenging when junior professionals lack the necessary professional boundaries. Mentorship and proper behavioural alignment are essential for organizational growth
>OMG WHY ARE THEY NOT FIXING THIS ISSUE INSTANTLY!? Depending on the issue it can be FAR more work and time to find the problem, fix it, and properly debug the version. At times requiring the rewriting massive amounts of code from scratch. >REEEEEEE YOU ARE JUST A SHILL REEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
I have Mina's basics at level 9, how important are her other skill levels? I know I should level them too eventually, but I want to get my Francis built for more bonus points in this rift
>>566108476 You only need 1 gold crit rate trait for Mina and you don't need any crit dmg at all if you have perfect roll on her equipment since her weapon gives a lot of crit dmg. I kept the mons like that since they're still usable on characters that don't have crit dmg on their weapons.
>>566103392 You can leave her special and switch skills at 3, ultimate at 6/9 but you want to eventually max her basics to 12 since that's where most of her damage comes from.
>>566113660 Considering even the developer statement is that they are currently investigating, nobody fucking knows. The way it happens is visually inconsistent too.
>>566112051 Alright, thank you. I do want to level her basics more eventually, but I still need to max her monsterlings and her gear. Her arm piece and boots are 18 at least though
Speaking of skills, are any of Francis' important? I don't think her attack buff increases with levels. I imagine I should level them some, but I'm not sure of their importance compared to leveling her monsterlings and equipment after getting her and her cube to 50
Official English summary of the livestream from the 30th. https://forum.netmarble.com/stardive_gl/view/2/272 >Debuting new swimsuit characters and new characters in 1.2. >For now they plan to focus on releasing more characters instead of making skins. >They teased swimsuit Francis. So Francis will be possibly a 4 star Swimsuit alt? Interesting.... I'm assuming the TBA character will be either the pink bunny sexbot or the schoolgirl sexbot.
>>566126220 Lightning heavily affects colors in this game. Francis ranges between dark and light brown hair. Verna ranges all the way between a dark brown and a dark pinkish red. Even eyes are affected, Ophelia ranges between amethyst+bright sapphire and dark purple and dark blue for example. They really went wild with UE's lighting capabilities to compensate for the blandness of cell shaded graphics.
>Checks Reddit >Increasing amount of barely coherent posts over the weeks. >Checks the views on recent comments. >Majority of views are spread about evenly between India and SEA countries, America is sub-30%. This explains a lot...
just luckshitted my way into this without any upgrade stones. its gonna be a generalist support piece later, so thats why its crit and no skill cd. just batch combining all the fodder monlings until i can get as many 5* monlings as possible, and then fusing with my existing 2 gold liner el dorados and hoping for luck. the first gold 2 liner was easy. the second gold 2 liner was a pain in the ass and costed almost 100 puree and a ton of retries. but w/e puree is pretty abundant now after rift reset. gold upgrade stones forever will be the unobtanium.
The way we just have no reason to use the majority of characters is huge downer... 1.0 first half: Nobody aside Esther and Jiwon matters 1.0 second half: Nobody aside Mina and the brute force comp matters, lucksacks who have an Angel with Awakenings do get to play around with that though I guess.... 1.1 first half: Narae season so even more Mina shilling. 1.1 second half: Nobody aside the golden duo of Esther and Nagi matters....
>>566168660 Probably femdevs adding them at the last second as a fuck you. Women getting hired to sabotage games is very common. CZN had it the worst. The last chapter was probably rewritten to remove any traces of shipping after they went with the no more male characters statement.
>>566168660 >c-suites want every product to be the next genshin and appeal to every audience >initial marketing goes uo >data shows no one gave a fuck >course correct get use to it
>>566176359 The patch starts at the 27th of May and lasts until the 8th of July. Nagi's banner starts at the 17th of June. Unless something fucks with timings again of course.
>>566187771 >were we always this slow Yes. The terminally online ADHD schizos and bots stuck to their chinkslop, so nobody is spamming pointless shit for the sake of muh numbers. It's a good thing.
>>566190149 Genshin was before the feminist takeovers so it had actual universal appeal for the first couple years and still having it's original dev team it had soul. Then the usual executive strongarming and moving the best developers into the new projects happened with fresh replacement and you see what happened to that game by now. You EoS with soul or love long enough to become soulless. On the Western side the community itself went to true shit when Sumeru was coming out because the Negros were desperately trying to self insert into everything West-Asian and middle eastern so ever since the special snowflakes keep farming attention with that game.
>>566191274 Superior Korean game design, everyone. >Gets hypebaited into Nikke. >Plays gripping and intense event story. >Every fucking story node is time locked to your daily reset. No binging even if you are late. >Cliffhanger with second half only opening in two weeks. >Fuck off. *Quits*
>>566202587 >A6P5 Whaled unit outscaling everything so far the only thing remaining to buff it are one fucking artifact(requirement is max stamina at all times hence Jiwon) and Francis is likewise moral support with BP artifact and her A4. >For the illiterate and retarded, these units broke in terms of stats to the point they have no teammates aside other A6F5 units. Meaning 1.0 is extremely scuff with both seasons being effectively fucking solos rather than actual teams. >"What about Esther laaaawllll?" Assassin needs the boss to be stunned to capitalize on Suppression damage. She is missing Nagi. >"Faighta OOOOPEEEEE!!!!" Since you are a tourist: the Fighter affinity is such a brick(proven to literally do nothing in a bossfight) they turned Mina into a Destroyer with her ULT multiplying her base stagger to the level of a Destroyer with gold boots. Then on top of it they did a panic buff to Mina's kit by speeding up animations without adjusting her numbers. This results in Mina gameplay being perpetual edging because she can't actually get shit out of burst phases. This will only make Nagi guaranteed to be even more OP with Esther. But you don't play this game anyway so you don't need to worry your watery little head about it. >The F2P fire setup is Flare, Angel and Francis. No fucking Verna to be seen.
Damn, I don't think I'm strong enough for rift 20 yet. Feels too risky without Francis, and not enough damage yet with Francis. Still need to level her skills and monsterlings more though
May also have to build Angel and give her Flare's gear too since Mina does hog a lot of field time, but the def down on Flare's ult seems handy to have
>>566224037 Francis awakenings? Do you have Earth damage in Francis' monsterlings to activate the critdmg buff on her sig?
In a shocking turn of events Mina powercrept Flare. Fighter is a brick class so they compensated with giving her Destroyer level stagger through her ult. So try Mina-Francis-Angel.
Leveling skills until you got the purple mats at first is fine, then if you need more focus on the main damage source of the character until you hit the gold material wall. Fully maxing skills is a high investment.
Also give Mina skill cooldown reduction. You absolutely need the full -45% but purple trails are a massive improvement to her performance too. You onfield DPS with Mina until the boss is stunned, swap to Francis for buffs then swap to Angel who you'll burst with, then back to Francis for buffs again into Mina when the boss is back up. Mina is the stunner in this team and the stunner also does the job of brutally manhandling the boss outside the burst window in this game.
>>566227902 does assassin really do that much dmg during stagger over a well built figher? im stuck at rift 27 and wonder if i should lvl up angels skills but shes just a0. i just gave her all of esthers shit including esthers weapon, but all my good monlings are on mina. i refuse to whale so a0r1 mina is as high as i go. i just use mina during stagger as well cuz shes the strongest built char.
>>566231105 used both (yeon a1) and performance is about the same. dont know if i want to actually lvl up angels skills just to find out using her during the stagger window is no improvement than just using mina during stagger.
>>566232302 >Tries to run a burst DPS with no investment. >Surprised it doesn't do it's job. Fucking morons... Just level her skills until you hit the purple tier mats at least FFS, since you already have shit to borrow from Esther. Also at least give her leveled monsterlings with boss and Suppression damage. As for Mina at least give her skill cooldown reduction.
>>566229996 >Fighter The class stat is a literal brick. Go figure. >Assassin Suppression damage caps at 50% which is MULTIPLICATIVE with the total from crit, boss and weakness. That shit is the first thing you should be capping.(Assassin in gold boots plus gold traits from monsters) Yes. Your Penny is a brick since launch. >But Mina She was unbricked on release by turning her into a destroyer functionally with her ult you are already maximizing the uptime of by doing as much stagger as a destroyer wearing gold boots. The thing that makes her a massive value long term investment is the fact she starts at 0 towards the 75% neutralization damage (stagger) cap because of this, and her scaling with it is also going to be absolutely insane because of her massive BASE stagger during ult. You want an assassin to burst during staggered phases, and Mina isn't competing with an assassin, she ENABLES them while manhandling bosses herself.
>>566233593 >Staggered When you get the kewl cinematic moment with a burst phase >Knocked down The boss or mobs lay down being all submissive and breedable from either a counter or CC.
>>566233658 >>566237528 lvled talents on angel to 9, gave her all of esthers shit, good monlings with good traits, 8000 atk, capped cr/cdmg food buffs. maxed out 5* assassin boots with atk/cr/cdmg substats. she still does less dmg during stagger than my mina. holy shit cant believe i listened to you niggers and i wasted all my key jars and and tons of gold.
>>566242848 Yeah but Mina as a fighter is only good at clearing mobs i mean it's in her description bro she can't do anything else buddy mina is a brick you're just falseflagging bro.
>>566244265 i didnt say im not using together. been using mina, francis, and angel, but listened to those assassinschizos about using angel during stagger phase. wasted ton of resources building her up and shes not better than mina during stagger phase.
>>566244575 >Ton of resources A few keys >building her up Awakenings? Monsterlings levels/traits/quality(you know, suppression damage, weakness damage and boss damage)?
>>566227902 A1 Francis and yes I do have some earth damage
Only have cooldown reduction trait on Mina right now but it's gold. I only have one purple monsterling though so mine just have two traits, I need to upgrade some for sure but I've been hesitant on doing so because I'm not sure the best way to go about it. What other stats should I be looking for on monsterlings? Just been trying to get atk%/crit rate/elemental damage mostly, but are there better in addition to cooldown?
I still need to max out my Mina's monsterlings, they're not quite there yet, and level up equipment pieces for Francis and her skills some at least. I know I'll be able to clear it eventually, but it's going to take some more investment than I'm currently at
>>566255090 Take your time. It's a slow burn. Last season I couldn't get full gold gear for my Esther and Mina's conquest farming this season doesn't look good either so far. You get purples mainly from doing the daily requests against the world bosses that drop the purple stuff and it's crafting material. Monsters-wise I just have two gold traits on them and leveled them up, then upgraded them to gold as I got the material and it was the right monster. According to Koreans the best traits are boss damage, weakness damage, atk% and the flex slot of skill cooldown reduction or role specific damage such as Neutralization and Suppression.
>>566274435 Shit got nuked HARD. They not only added spats and socks and covered everything that resembled a boob but they also removed animations and interactions with characters. Pretty much the definition of "money stolen" so it's super over.
>>566291595 Artifacts are a one and done thing. It’s a bit of a waste to use your conquest tokens on upgrade materials for them, since your keys are technically unlimited.
>>566303225 Yes. They are aware and are investigating the issue. No it's not the lag. No it's not what you heard either because they bug out different ways too. This is eldritch as fuck.
>>566308465 If you need to be moving alternate coin usage between skill and charge. Charge gives your next enhanced skill +50% damage. If the boss is just standing around and you have to break their shield or w/e spam skill with coins
Is the daily greeting on login still a thing? I ponyed up for the monthly and I noticed I'm no longer get the login greeting from any of my characters.
>>566339691 Alright I read her kit, seems we're going full Genshin with this one. Not that I'm complaining, reactions are one of the few interesting things about that game.
Why when you turn in the board quest we don't get a monsterling of the quest we just did? its not like we will be swimming on copies of those monsters.
>>566364932 Not only on her, any onfielder that has hyperarmor at all time like Ellie prectically never needs to dodge. It can even work with Mina if you have full ult uptime.
>>566366603 more like >The suits at Netmarble are tealling us what to do and they have no idea what the fuck a videogame is. On the dev livestream they mentioned that the devs are basically in a power struggle over direction with Netmarble.
>>565973512 I want to play but why no guest accounts or salted emails? Starting a gacha without the girl I find the cutest of the starters sounds awful
>>566248603 In short: We are relying on feedback and analysis to make improvement.
It's the best news you can get because the opposite is suits who don't know how to make games and are completely detached from the actual costumers shoehorning what they think will make massive moolah and out of pride will rather run the game to the ground than take feedback.
Biggest reason why Tower of Fantasy was so shit is Tencent kept shoehorning their own smartasses into the project. NIKKE's fucking disaster of a launch was also from interference.
Mongil so far has been taking feedback into account and improving the game.
>>566383926 you obviously didn't play tof then, tof in china was absolute shit powercreeping to the moon, much of the global release was trying to solve problems but they still failed hard if tencent was involved in global version clearly they stopped caring
>>566384076 >powercreeping to the moon Yeah typical publisher interference. Or are you now trying to pretend it1s the publisher that's the hard working developer, and the developer is actually the disconnected money hungry retard thinking he'll win jackpot by applying this simple trick from the statistics? LOL
>>566384328 Successful actually, you are just not going to get Genshin level impacts on the industry nor Wuwa level astroturfing anymore because the market have became saturated unlike those time when those were the only games to talk about. But what would you know? You are a fucking newfag.
>>566394781 how did they interfere when they only publish the global version and the content was like 1 year behind china? >and the developer is actually the disconnected money hungry retard perfect world sells $100k mount in their MMO just so you know
what hoyo title's combat is this game ripping off? the concept seems cool but i can't stand genshin combat and it's bad enough that it's got genshin UI so i'm not sure if i want to play this
Once I get to 3.1mil, should I just be farming stage 21? Since that seems to be the level with the most rewards, 22 and 23 seem to be the same. I don't think I can push past 23 right now.
>>566457327 I only kill boss until they fix that retarded bug food buff is on all the time since they stop counting when you're on menu or logged out anyway
>>566465398 Yeah since I posted that I've been able to push to 11 with Mina, Francis, and A1 Yeonhwa, without food, so maybe I can keep going
>>566465994 I already have a full 4 piece set of Hahnul equipment on both my Mina and Flare already, though my Flare's boots are major cope, but I also want to start caring about my monsterlings a bit more and they're still on two liner fodder
>only try to move gold traits to final mutation to save on puree >finally get a gulgak after failing so much >lose the 50/50 and lose gulgak realized its better just to spend the puree instead of losing the successful mutations
>>566486182 Conquest Use the strongest character you had to climb to 15 Then do 3(+1~3 buying tickets from conquest shop) daily sweep to get gears/mats to craft gears
>>566491463 Open your bag, click on tier 5 trait on the filter, locking them Then combine the one with mutations Then combine the one without mutation with the "batch combine" remember to recheck their traits after each batch combine Oh and also lock all the boss monling before doing anything
how far do these cooking gems go before it caps out. no fucking way this will work for the rarer foods. it will cost tens of millions of gold and months of grinding materials.
>that sad violin that plays when you're done beating up sangun's embodiment of self-hatred It's so silly I can't help but laugh. Also I was scared of the tiger conquest but absolutely raped my way from 1-15 with A1F1 Mina.
>>566575165 For me it depends on the time of day. Pretty sure the global server is in Korea, so it runs smooth for me outside of SEA hours. Very slow and laggy while SEAs fill the server.
>>566556123 >Mina's best team runs A6 Angel. Hmmmmm...... It's almost like we have different ROLES in this game, and if you read the fucking thread you'd know they turned Mina into a Destroyer with A1 to unbrick her ass on the long term. Can't wait for you to not skip Nagi either, shitter. Your samefagging also stands out like a sore thumb. >>566557103>>566561891 Go back to your South-East Asian infested Hoyothreads.
What's the pull economy like in this game? Am I able to get every character during its banner or am do you have to skip some? And what about dupes, are they only for whales or can I expect to sometimes get some as a low spender?
What do people mean about a glitch that makes "genocide" hard? Are mobs and bosses supposed to respawn sooner than they currently are able to? What about gathering spots?
>>566663439 Sometimes after you defeat a monstie a blue pick-up icon will show but then disappear shortly after. It’s a bug that causes you to miss a monstie you were supposed to get.
I don't know what to do with all these excess rift tokens after clearing 20. I can't push much further yet, would it be worth to go back and run lower difficulty stages to farm, or should I just hold them until I'm stronger for higher level stages?
>>566676031 That's probably the smarter decision, especially as f2p. I've already been able to brute force all the level 15 conquest bosses with A0 Mina and her artifact anyway so it's not necessary, I'm just tempted by the QoL
But I imagine Narae will be a good upgrade for her anyway, and it'd be nice to be able to get her for my Cloud too
>>566693758 easy and fast you need to redo it a bunch of times if you want to capture 4/4 or 3/3 and miniboss but if you don't want to go full autistic mode just open all the low tiers till you get the boss you want so you don't waste gold on rerolls.
I have been playing slowly and don't understand how monsterling system works. Are those good traits? They look good. Should I be ranking up this one with the stones or mixing it up with others?
>>566711970 Cool down reduction (cdr) is very good, yes Don't rank it up yet, wait until you get another mon with gold traits You can combine them to get 2 gold trait using the cat food thinggy. Then you rank it up
>>566712696 There's no such thing yet but just usually you want cdr, crit rate, DMG to boss and the one you just got Crit DMG is not very recommended for now because you'll hit the cap(200) very easily
>>566734838 >See option to update for every launcher >Get suspicious >Click on only this update >Sit and stare at a loading circle for a minute >close and just start the game We are going to run into the mother of fuckups before long.
>still havent fixed disappearing monling ghost bug are these devs truly incompetent, or just greedy not willing to increase server cost and ok with losing players
I don't get what I am supposed to be doing with combining/upgrading monsterlings. I'm afraid I'm going to waste some important resources and therefore I'll just do nothing and probably quit the game
>>566846195 the only important resource is gold traits and boss monsters even if you wasted other mutation material it doesn't matter because you're hard gated by the boss monster and if you gamble too much the puree
>>566846195 >look for gold traits that boost your damage >lock them with puree and fuse two together onto a single monster >now you have two traits on a monster but it's most likely a shitmon >gamble puree trying to move them on a mon with a good passive That's it. Don't bother trying to rank them up without orbs. It's too costly.
Ophelia is fun. Having her special be 3 casts before cooldown feels like I'm doing combos with light and heavy attacks instead of just left clicking. She's also my favorite character personality wise. She makes a good flustered/ straight man for Francis.
>>566920461 I think I figured it out. You can set companions in your profile. I had the original trio registered when I started playing because I thought it was just a lineup. I now have Ophelia, Mina and Francis registered. Hopefully it works.
>>566913174 No we are just the first healthy gacha thread in forever. Gachas reached critical mass so there is simply not enough ADHD children to shit up all of them. They relegate to their H***verse and Wu****ing W*ves threads.
