got hit by #1's arena team. it's pretty gross. i wanted to try something similar and pivot to a mari/tokiko team eventually but my cores were unlucky on the recent event. anyone know if debuff block stops gauge reduction?
>>566768765 I feel like nao requires a lot of investment to work, specifically both leveling his skills and a build centered around 35%+ dodge to further capitalize his aoe acc down.
>>566774583 You bridge the gap prior to that by attacking into Agility teams, or bringing a teammate who brings an Incapacitation/Forced Attack debuff. Nao's S1 being able to extend beyond 1 Random Debuff lets him keep 1 enemy locked down, with the S2 being used to support the rest of his team.
>>566776085 I can see it, So something like this? Many opportunities to extend some form of disable with options below. Probably not this comp tho considering it doesn't have a trait bonus.
>>566776860 Could be, I know if you get attacked directly it wakes up the characters but they can still take damage if they're asleep while poisoned when their turn comes up.
>>566715743 50% gold is just 50 gold on top of the 100 you already received. so 150 gold. 50% energy cut means you get to do 2 runs for the price of one, effectively doubling all rewards.
>>566779857 Yeah, out of that team, Rakshasa would be the modular slot, even if bringing 2 Saturns denies you the variety 10% buff. A pro of lockdown comp is your HP/Atk don't need as much boosting, as you'll lock the enemy down long enough for the Arena's damage modifier to kick in within 3 'rounds'.
Within 4-Saturn, you also have Green options in Mai, Yuri (as you listed), Saya, and interestingly enough for this comp, old man Hoensai, who brings an Arena HP 25% leader aura and a weapon-enabled party-wide Taunt S3, though 4-Saturn takes out the Nao.
Keeping Nao and modulating Rakshasa, though, Mari is probably the easiest fit so long as Nao is faster and has Hermodr, though if you wanted Mari's weapon-enabled Faint, the party needs another party-wide debuff prior to her. Running Yuri or Suzune and keeping one enemy turned agains their team is a fun way to run a 5 on 3 fight.
A lot of units make for interesting anchors to figure out a team around, now that a lot of folks are just getting past the "I just made it to farming end-game" status.
>>566789064 Her stats aren't too crazy ,whats most important is getting the sleep off during my teams 3rd turn. That way I can just focus fire one enemy at a time while everyone takes 2 turns of 2-3 stack poisons and sleep. Normally I run asagi instead of spica for Speed aura/turn gauge reduction but she is banned this week.
>>566810768 You can clear 6-7(or more) 12 star cores with 12~ million gold during the upgrade core cost reduction event. I was lucky enough to clear 5 cores with 7 million last week.
>>566811941 Helps that she can fuck with your mind and make you think what she wants you to think, even fuck with your memories iirc. I imagine she raped many a men with that.
Friendly remind. There event ticket, so either 1 character in event only farmable event gacha ticket. Or 3 of them in the new event pick up ticket only so your pink tick is useless.
>>566817465 Oh... so they're going to be alts? They're not doing outfits...? I think I have to drop this kusoge. It's just going to be chasing the glass ceiling of minmaxing level 60 units endlessly.
>>566817465 We may not get a full event, but having animations and voices to go with the new units is nice. Pronanly some interesting main screen interactions, too.
>>566817465 >>566818519 >>566819238 At least it means the next event banner won't be those three. (Except Asagi who has like three different versions already datamined for Rift mode)
So at the very least, Murasaki is most likely part of the Pick Up Banner after tonight's maint. Hopefully we will also see a babby's first event to go along with it.
Sheet anon here, reporting that at some point since April or so, Burn's mechanic got sneaky-updated.
Old: X%MaxHP(target) per tic Current: X%CurrentHP(target) per tic Notably: This means Burns can't kill anymore, as they haven't since this sneaky update.
>>566837072 Nah he’s not enough of a rat man to be like him, he does remind me of someone from the elder scrolls series but apparently he and his two allies are kinda a big deal being former court members of the demon king, smells like a tie in to Squad. Anyway I believe the next main story chapter in July is gonna be the Raid on Neo earth’s headquarters to obtain the final piece to restore the yomihara gate
>kill Minasaki with Sakura's normal attack >game locks up can they fix this shit already or at least let me pass a character's turn? it's always Tokiko or Sakura's normal attack fucking things up
>>566834221 Yeah, the left side of my image there is what's currently in the google sheet, which was post-release. I just noticed in the last week, maybe 2, that Ingrid's Burn wasn't killing people in Arena anymore, so I checked to see the right side is the current ingame description.
"By logging into the game during the event period and completing daily updated missions, you can obtain "[Bride] Asagi Igawa," Asagi's exclusive weapon, and event rewards. A special story that can be viewed upon obtaining "[Bride] Asagi Igawa" will also be added. In addition, to commemorate the wedding season, a new wedding lobby theme will be added that allows you to decorate the characters even more beautifully.
Additionally, a special gacha event featuring "[Bride] Nanase Mai" and "[Bride] Yatsu Murasaki" will be held, so be sure to check it out."
We'll see how this turns out, but -maybe- real event on top of Kirara-shards-tier log-in event?
>>566846330 Not like they haven't already been a thing in the other games. The designs and artwork exist for the characters already.
>>566836562 >>566838526 >he does remind me of someone from the elder scrolls Dude literally looks like he's about to call someone an N'wah. Who thought TES would be Squad's first crossover? Give Almalexia her groove back pls Gremory.
>>566847756 They were all different characters until now. Now it's clear they're going to do the way worse form of power-creep where Swimsuit Yukikaze is going to be the blatantly superior Yukikaze than Bride Yukikaze released a month before.
>>566847502 He’s actually from the latest RPGX chapter, which came out much earlier than I expected, guess new chapters are mid month rather than late month now
>>566855393 Squad has been good with making low rarity units good. We'll know soon enough if the brides power creep their base versions. I have a feeling people would complain if they didn't.
>>566858023 >Squad has been good with making low rarity units good. To an almost "badly designed" level. There are straight up no 5-stars I currently care about using, they either can't AOE or their versions of kits are weaker/less consistent than 3-star versions.
>>566860880 >their versions of kits are weaker/less consistent than 3-star versions Obviously done on purpose because then what's the point of anything but 5*s? There's no world where everybody wins, you either get a game where the non 5*s have a chance to shine or the one that only 5*s matter.
>>566861220 >Obviously done on purpose because then what's the point of anything but 5*s? I mean... that is kind of how gachas usually do it. So while it is a fresh change, a very fresh and very welcome change and a LOT more fun, I'd be surprised if they did not consider Minasaki, Aoi, Aello, and maybe a few others as mistakes.
>>566861450 >Minasaki, Aoi, Aello, and maybe a few others as mistakes They know fully well what they are doing as they nerfed brown elf's freeze chance despite no one really using her. They sold Mirabell for 1 dollar AND gave you the option to buy her broken ass weapon. Mari is the only step up character that's a 4* because her weapon allows her to faint the entire enemy team. If complaints do roll in then they will just nerf those characters you mentioned or introduce counters like with Murasaki's latest buff.
>>566862031 >They know fully well what they are doing as they nerfed brown elf's freeze chance despite no one really using her. I don't even have a debuff chance set yet, just the monoblue buff, and she consistently freezes 3/4 of the enemy team. It's so brutal. Right now I'm on an Aello kick though since it's "blues aren't banned" week.
They did money lock the solution to some of this with Eleanor though. I'm just so invested in seeing how the pvp progresses due to all this.
>>566862549 >I'm just so invested in seeing how the pvp progresses due to all this. Same. Hopefully the brides are actually good because it will shake up pvp. We might even get Arena QoL tonight.
>>566863078 I never want power creep to "shake up" a meta. I want things to shift just because options provide openings to change things. Not like "Hey 5-star Bride Minasaki is a Mirabelle power creep who removes buffs on attack!"
>>566863513 >I want things to shift just because options provide openings to change things That's enough to shake up the meta because it is VERY stiff right now.
>>566864826 >Multihit basic that involves her spinning, each hit has a 5% to cause confusion. >2nd skill reduces enemy turn gauge to 0 and grants party SPD up >3rd skill grants party hp absorb and faints the enemy team
>>566878756 It's 20% per success, so it's a range of 20%-80% restored. So depending on what the remaining 'round' of gauge looks like, you could.
Can't say that it'd be guaranteed every time you won the 4-in-a-row success, because still need to test how speed stats + 'rounds' work (does carry over exist after filling a 100, basically).
finally i have so use for the multi-trim feature since whoever in charge of mkaing videos is retarded, i joined them for posting here not sure why would anyone roll for her
>>566880364 >not sure why would anyone roll for her Bride Murasaki is for (you).
>>566880110 Buff/Debuff block doesn't affect turn gauge stuff so it shouldn't. Which makes me think they are eventually going to introduce a way to increase it's value.
>>566880364 >not sure why would anyone roll for her Uhhhh... You know that feeling when you read something so retarded, that you can't formulate a response? I'm having that right now.
>>566768765 Could you do one for Hiiragi fuyumi? I am trying to think of a team that could utilize her but her kit seems to be all over the place. The only thing that seems to be nice is she could have great self sustain with regen cores and second weapon (s2 potential 53-60.5% self heal with 2 turn cd).
However it seems counter intuitive considering her s1 scales in proportion to HP lost and she is offensive type so her healing wont scale to big HP numbers.
>>566891903 I'm midway through Venus, then it's Saturn, and then Sun units where Fuyumi is.
That said, Fuyumi in general wants to capitalize on her high base Speed and become a supportive dps for units like Maika (and future Astaroth), and Explode(Burn)ers, and units that get +Damage when attacking lower HP targets.
You want her fast to blast a priority non-Agility with her S3, using the DefPen bonus to 'find the weak gazelle,' then keep poking enemies with her S1, fishing for Burns or just wearing away at Shields/P.Shields. Her weapon-S2, the heal+Extra Turn, is great because it combos with her high speed for even faster cooldown reduction on her S3, which either picks a new 'weak gazelle,' or starts supporting with fairly reliable Turn Gauge(-).
>>566891903 >>566893169 Also, the way skills upgrades like her S2 read, "Buffs and Debuffs +10%," operate like "Heal 15%MaxHP (+10% of 15%, +20% of 15%, etc etc)" so it would be a range of Level 0 = 15%, Level 5 = +50%, or +half of 15%, so 22-23%MaxHP heal.
>>566893531 Thanks, I am aware of how much base healing her s2 and how it scales. I was just counting the extra 19% healing on turn start with 4/4 Regen core along with the extra turn that grants her an additional 19% heal + her base 15~23% s2 heal. It's a shame her passive doesn't work with lifesteal.
>>566894121 I much prefer human-made art over AI ones. AI makes mistakes and the people that run it don't seem to have an understanding on whether it looks good or not. It's why it's easy for us to tell when there's AI slop involved.
I wish Squad was fully hand drawn but I'll take any Taimanin crumbs. Also seems jannies deleted my ad... they just knew.
>>566894895 Yeah it doesn't work with lifestealing of any kind unfortunately. It works on 4/4 regen cores, single target self heals, If an AOE heal/ Regen heal is cast only the ability user will benefit from the extra healing passive.
Ugh I hate alts. This always leads to power creep and we get no new characters. There are so many characters that still need to be added! Leave the alts for way later AHHHHHH!
>>566895026 >the people that run it don't seem to have an understanding on whether it looks good or not Yeah, knowing what works and what looks good is a skill unto itself. Prompters who just tell AI what to do and never made art in their life haven't developed that skill yet. AI works best in an artist's hands, as the artist knows how to direct the AI and correct its mistakes. It's unfortunate that a lot of those most enthusiastic about AI know nothing about art, and artists are so strongly averse to using AI. It is ultimately synthesis between man and machine that surpasses all.
>>566897132 At this rate, the next alt event isn't going go be until August lmao Next Pickup will most likely be when the event ends, along with the next step up.
>>566915383 >New Bond Story: "I'm Not Even Called Sister!" (Fuuma Tokiko & Kasahara Tatsumi) >Added "Guaranteed Upgrade" feature. A "Guaranteed Upgrade" option is now available when upgrading Cores and Modules. You can choose to use this feature at any time, regardless of upgrade failures. Guaranteed Upgrade requires a higher amount of Gold. >The maximum level for Clan Facilities has been raised from 25 to 30.
>>566920404 >Added "Guaranteed Upgrade" feature. A "Guaranteed Upgrade" option is now available when upgrading Cores and Modules. You can choose to use this feature at any time, regardless of upgrade failures. Guaranteed Upgrade requires a higher amount of Gold. Being a latelet who capped at lv6 and a few 9s is paying off!
>>566927279 35 tickets from daily event missions, 200 tickets total from "spend stamina," 100 rolls per FULL clear at most, only need 4 full clears to get the bare minimum Assembled Wedding Asagi. 5 and beyond give flat out Dupes.
So: 200 + 35 * 6 = 410 event tickets after 6 days of just spending stamina and doing the dailies = confirmed Wedding Asagi copy #1.
>>566927583 She does nothing else to debuff (turn gauge down on S1 doesn't count), and that Confusion S3 version is from the non-free weapon. At base 70%, with it still tied to party-wide Revive? Just keep it for the Revive potential and if you get a Confusion, that's a bonus.
She is HP BLOAT like Eleonor, with 83 base speed. Just slap some speed on her with defensive subs. She won't be there for damage; she'll be there for Crit Rate on party and cycle enough to have her 5-cooldown reset when you need the Revive.
>>566927279 >>566927520 nta I'm guessing there is no incentive to stay beyond the Asagis, we will get nowhere remotely near enough to actually cap lotto, that's for paypigs?
>>566927520 I got the shards from the 1st 'box'. Are we supposed to clear out the box before moving on? I had no Idea how this also worked in Action Taimainin from the little time I played of it.
>>566927896 Event timer says 20+1 days, the 5+ event tracks seem to be /150 rather than the /100 of the first 4. 35 x 21 = 735 +200 = 935 shards if you do all the dailies for all 21 days, which is like 4 complete + 2-3 more full clears. This is all assuming your luck is shit and you need to spend a full 100 before moving onto the next set, btw. They also confirmed that these Event Tickets will carry over into the next event like this.
>>566927956 If you're focused entirely on W!Asagi and dupes, then yeah you can advance ahead. That said, the first 4 sets seem like they have the best quality of rewards, so if you're not worried about the numbers above, you can safely clear out the first four sets completely.
>>566927279 I got Bride Asagi within the first 35 tickets, seems it will stop your roll and only consume what was necessary to get to the prize. Was doing 10 rolls and was confused at first and thought the event was emergency-maintenance-tier bugged.
Can't say I'm a big fan of this arena makeover. Bring back my dark mode.
Event seems okay for a first attempt, there's some nice stuff in the gacha and in the event shop. But I'm not sure about having to roll the characters to see the story instead of playing through missions like in AT.
>>566929267 >>566929278 Whatever Squad's issues, 3D modelling and animation isn't among them. Whoever's responsible for these character models and animations are fucking gods.
>updating Squad on my phone >download 1.57gb update? >4.75gb / 1.57gb >it's still going up Wut? Gremory I don't think I have much space left on my phone...
I guess this new event isn't like the Action Taimanin events where you should try to clear the board. Instead, just get the fragments and move to the next tier, everything else is a consolation prize. Tickets are finite, so if you try to get everything, you won't get the fragments. Just my thoughts.
>>566930205 I don't think this is doing much against Minasaki because she doesn't really need to be the fastest to carry the team but it might just turn Tokiko defense teams completely powerless agaisnt Ganbare because Tokiko is genuinely worthless if she's not outpacing Minasaki
>>566930843 No this isnt my first rodeo i was just wondering if this is going to be truly limited or not since the previous banner ones were not. But I'm guessing these are going to be limited then.
>>566931604 Mai just seems to work right out of the box desu. Funny how she also has a soft counter to Mirabelle's crit passive. I'm going to have to make a new arena team now though.
Dude WTF is this event? We can only get 35 tickets per day? The event lasts for 20 days, so that's only 700 tickets in total. That's not enough to reach gacha level 9.
>>566933583 I really don't understand the rationale behind some of the censorship choices. Teacher Oboro's two bras is the funniest, especially when other characters are showing much more cleavage than her uncensored version. It seems like some character models get away with showing much more skin when others are basically wearing a burkini.
Then again I don't really understand Jap censorship on the H side of things either, it's fine to show uncensored gaping buttholes but if there's anything IN the buthole THEN it has to be censored even if whatever is entering/leaving doesn't?
>>566934009 Not by much, you build around it. She'd need to become giga meta for the people NOT using her to build around it every other week. And you can make sure Saya Neo outspeeds your own team since she's minimally impacted.
>>566930109 looks extremely AI generated to me, or at least done by someone who doesn't know shit about the basics of gardening. Those roses are way too big, and the flowers fon the trees looks like wisteria, badly photoshopped there.
>>566935032 >Feli's tits >not Anemone's fuckhuge legs due to the wide angle effect Need to experiment with character poses now to see who distorts in amusing ways when they're near the edges of the screen.
>>566938010 We have 20 days and you only need to get through 4 rounds to get Asagi. The secondary rewards are much better in boxes 1-4 than in boxes 5+ so I'm gonna empty them.
"※ Pickup Characters: [Legendary] "[Wedding] Nanase Mai", [Epic] "[Wedding] Yatsu Murasaki" ※ Pickup Period: Until June 4th, 2026, 00:59 (UTC) ※ "[Wedding] Nanase Mai" is guaranteed on every 100th Pickup Recruit. The recruit gauge will persist even if the Pickup character changes, until the reward is claimed. ※ The limited-time Pickup characters will not be added to the Special Recruit or Premium Recruit lists."
You can reliably trust the listed characters shown here, as I can confirm it's the same image files / names if you just extracted the files from the APK. Just take any listed movesets / color+type combos with a grain of salt.
>>566956883 Basically same as normal dailies. Do Main Story 10 times, do Spec Ops (they sent 3 spec ops stuff in the mail), do TacTrain, do some Arena, get cores, upgrade cores, etc.
>>566956968 yeah i just saw the new pseudo dailies inside the event button a shame i did real dailiesbefore maint so may as well do them again just now
>>566951710 damn, maybe i should keep pulling until i get Mu-chan too (?) i already got Mai and im not a creature of the sea, should i try getting both characters?
The skill textbook is super good value, no? and the fragment box might be good. you can choose your character, so 15 Mari shards would get me really close to her and the 15% xp buff she brings
>>566957730 Kasahara and even Aki get called Big Sis, while Tokiko suffers the harassment of Saika and Amane for NOTHING.
The Codex entries still list that Danjo led a rebellion, but basically all the big names (ninja sluts) lmao'd and sided with Asagi. The Fuuma Clan still had a risky period, but seemingly has bounced back enough due to Kotaro's somewhat competence and ??active?? Evil Eye powers early. At the very list, the Gaiza Clan doesn't seem to have rebelled, though the Gaiza's subordinate Clans seem to still be independent and running underground businesses?
Never know how much is just a lack of coodination from the devs, though.
>>566958132 The event will give out minimum 2500 gems, on top of gains throughout the 20-day period. It doesn't hurt to keep building up the pity on the Pick Up Banner with how they changed all rolls to contribute to global pity, how banner pity carries over, etc.
Wedding Murasaki seems like a fun Agility Sun dps option to have, and we do get her boosted-effect-teammate Wedding Asagi for free anyway.
>>566958524 Yeah, the fact that the Fragment Boxes are select, not RNG, and the event will give you a minimum of 2500 Gems, makes those and the Legendary skill book great value. That's a Legendary dupe for 3.3 rolls, basically.
>spent all my gems chasing Anemone who just would not get in the glass >only have like 800 for this event I do not regret blowing the biggest load for my cute spood, but damn.
>>566962152 Assuming you 100% the first 4 reward sets, that's 400 Event Tickets for guaranteed W!Asagi maximum. You'll then have approx 535 remaining tickets, and /150 reward sets from 5th and onward, which reward full W!Asagi dupes instead of x25 shards, so at worst, you'd then clear 5+6+7 100%, then half of 8th Set.
9th set and onward are the lowest, most basic "I'm doing this to get more W!Asagi dupes" sets, and specifically would be where people would be spending gems to clear, again at worst case scenario.
I thought the silver pass is included in the fucking golden pass in squad. I need gems. There are no fucking gems in the golden pass. It's just shit that lets you grind more.
anybody calculate if we got enough tickets from daily and event mission to get everything without needing to buy extra? i think 20k energy used in 20 days is very doable but im not sure about the total ticket needed for 9 rounds if nobody did the math i can take a crack at it
how are you guys doing mercury spec ops for the others, i rely on immobilise to prevent the aoe spam but i don't see anybody with that on mercury. is the best bet to rely on cecilia's saggers?
>>566973017 Mirabell, Aki, Noah and Saya Neo are pretty good if you invest in them. I believe Nagi and her dad are also pretty good if you build a team around them, but it's a bit trickier to get them to work. Amane is a great tank if you invest into her. Follow your dick, it will never steer you wrong
>>566984865 Now that I take a look at it, Fuuma manor looks upper class as fuck. Are Taimanin government-subsidized or do they live by donations or something?
>>566986102 >Are Taimanin government-subsidized Anon-san... Also some of them invest in business, some are hired killers (like ninjas supposed to be lol). There are ways to earn money and not all Taimanins are "clean".
>>566972236 i dropped isla even tho she has the aura and added fuuki with cecilia for better sustain, after that i just crit fished with a crit dmg set on my dps >>566976391 nice work
Man I just got owned by a MinaBell team (again). I checked the stats beforehand, and the enemy Mirabell had a speed of 92, and my Kirara had a speed of 94, so I thought "I'll just throw up a shield to deflect the nuke." Then somehow after Minasaki did her jig, Mirabell outsped my whole team anyway and halved their HP.
One of you who got Wedding Asagi early, kindly go into Display mode and give me a sexy, slightly zoomed in screenshot for the google sheet, please and thanks.
I'm actually retarded. You know how on the Squad event gacha, it has two other boxes that say they'll open when you get Asagi and her weapon? I somehow assumed those were separate gacha for Murasaki and Mai, so I speedran getting Asagi since I assumed there wouldn't be enough tickets to get every item from the categories across all three gacha. Of course I now realize those are not separate gacha, but story missions. There will in fact be enough event tickets to get all the items. My first squad event - BRICKED
Sorry, anons, but Maika and I are happily married now. She won't be working in RPGX anymore. Please understand. Any discussion of previous incidents has been legally classified as "non-canon".
>>567012294 >>567016173 yeah hold on no one should have bride Asagi yet, if so you lost 3750 gems and the 10 weapon ticket rolls and the 10 recruit tickets and all those mats
>>567019242 I will take the high road here in regards to Maika's loyalty and character.
Maika will come home one day to find (You) being raped into euphoric oblivion by a demon, breaking her will and her heart. The last thing she sees before the tears cloud her vision will be (Your) wedding ring being used as a septum ring by the demon.
>>567019918 It's a good thing I'm more of an Action Taimanin guy anywaywith Squad being my side chick at best, or else these grapes would taste way more sour.
>>567025083 I don't think they could implement a Trick Room mechanic without breaking something.
For those who don't follow competitive Pokémon, Trick Room is a move that inverts speed order. A very difficult to pull of strategy since Trick Room has to be manually set.
>>567025783 They've proven with Wedding Mai's weapon that they don't mind designing things with some friendly fire permissible. They could come up with some sort of Round Start, or Turn Start+Cooldown such as: The 3 units with the highest Speed have their Turn Gauge set to [Speed - 100], or 0, whichever is greater.
I do agree that I doubt they'd do a FULL battle inverse, though.
>>567023792 People really overestimate how much a single turn of sabotage on the lowest damage turn of a match changes things. Then again, people go 3-2-1-1 on Mirabelle rather than 2-3-1-2 as well. I feel like these people spend 100k on rerolls to find meme orc teams rather than actual matches.
