Rinko's wep depends on what you want her to do (Ignore shields for 1st wep and 2nd wep is to make her ultimate more suitable for bosses)
Yukikaze has a wep that makes her ult have 15% more crit chance

There's an image detailing it (don't have it, didn't save it) but you want to stay within a certain range of your rank points. Hitting someone with the same or more points is ideal but if you're attacking someone with less points than you just keep the point differential at 100 or less. Rerolling gets expensive if you're gaining and maintaining your rank so you have to settle eventually.
>>563531054
The game feels like it uses some sort of fixed seeding list or whatever it's called (think of how you can manipulate your stat gains via save scumming in Fire Emblem games, or using scrolls of rename and save scumming to create bullshit OP living weapons in Elona) since you'll generally see the same people regularly pop up for you for a while, not sure when it cycles/resets. I reroll a lot.

At least now she won't have to deal with that stuff as it basically is dropped from the series, together with all the other bullshit from Yukikaze titles. At this point it legit feels like everything from Yukikaze titles in it's original form, aside from characters, is basically dropped dead into the bin of stuff that they will never bring back, sitting together with everything connected to Mama Wa Taimanin.

i mean NTR is still very much a thing in case you forgot about hebiko, it's just that yuki seems to gone mostly vanilla lately
perhaps the fact she's fucking fuuma and not tatsurou makes it NTRlite, but it's not really the same when the poor guy might as well not exist

As a major focus NTR is basically dead, closer to sprinkled in stuff from time to time.
Hebiko NTR is so badly done that we might as well consider Hebiko one getting cucked desu.
Yuki is basically mostly vanilla for ero part of the series, with the NTR CD showing that they kinda exausted all the material on this path with her, as she just becomes generic NTR girl from slop titles released on DSlite with voice of Yuki. If Tatsurou doesn't exist then no one is cucked in RPGX, just Yuki having vanilla consensual scene with Fuuma.
I honestly wonder if they regret some early decisions in RPG that lead to cascading effect. Actually saw Japanese RPG players recently retweet first Rinko AV unit and how everyone was mostly on board with it at time, until it became her only stick that they run to the ground. In Quote tweets one was thinking how early on it wasn't decided how they would handle Rinko and that they basically have no material for her in story or scenes, as base Azusa plotline was resolved years ago and without Tatsurou being introduced to RPGX you have no base for bro con stuff with her. Just character without anything interesting to do riding on popularity from original VNs.

It's a strange thing when all the porn is still going only in one, Fuuma-centric game, and Tatsurou returned only in SFW title.
Sure, Lilith is slowly closing plot of RPGX, so maybe they will move on into more... balanced approach in the next NSFW game (literal (You) as a POV, more interactions between canon characters, raping everyone this time, etc.).
But it still will take a while.
At least Tatsubros, all five of us, breathed in a little hopium in our lungs with Squad release. For how much this game is a mixed bag, i will include this and usable Sakuya, and soon Snake Lady, as a good thing Squad developers made. At least they nailed some little things only several autists care about.

>>563547674
You have to remember when RPG started to exist. It was very different time where hope for VNs still didn't completly die off and they were still wrapping up TABA and working on Animated version of Yukikaze 2. Fuuma was fresh on their minds and they used ending of TABA as jumping point for their next project. Tatsurou was pushed as cuck joke up to this point so much they probably forgot that he is glue keeping Yukikaze plot together and only interesting thing to build on Rinko as a character beside her being hot. With jump from TABA to RPGX it showed one specific problem they probably didn't expect. TABA was title with mostly it's own original cast with more popular VN characters being extras that got scenes from time to time but weren't really that important to the plot for most of it, for RPG those popular characters became main ones and needing to be reworked for what they saw as Fuuma centric plot, most of TABA cast going into background and few new originals being added. Some characters worked long term and transitioned well(Kurenai, Yuki) and some didn't(Rinko, Sakura,Murasaki), just how things go sometimes.

>>563548269
It's not always about self inserting, retard. Some just have sympathy for the guy who has been rendered literally non-existant because both devs and players think it's lol so le funnay XDDD that he's the designated cuck character. It's a tired meme at this point. Also I just genuinely think Tatsurou interacting with Yuki or Rinko outside of an NTR story would be a nice change of pace, or even him meeting future Yuki and/or future Rinko would be interesting. None of this is probably ever happening though.

He is very cute and they probably could push him together with Nao as guys more on the cute side, with innocent puppy look he has. Know a guy who very into this kind of stuff, find Tatsurou design very hot and really wonders how no one at Lilith can see potential for BL or cute guy doing it with a girl style scenes with him.

I want a (You) protag who specifically has the option to choose a cutscene / event that consists of hanging out with Tatsuro / Kotaro / Gaiza and shooting the shit with some bros before going back to snorting lines of demon dust off Ingrid's bare belly as she lies on (Your) desk, while Asagi blows you from beneath the desk.

yeah there were quite a few people that found him very attractive when his squad art dropped. not into yaoi myself though, I'd rather he get femdom or his dominating women who tease him too much like shizuru but i can see how he could have that appeal for some.
>>
>>
>>563549269
He is in prime position to be in stories involving the two future versions while still having Fuuma involved if they want to.
It is one of those interesting story ideas that have problem developing with how many decisions were made because of need to push porn stuff without thinking of consequences for the future stuff.
We still have nearly nothing on Yuki father aside from few snipits of info that would be interesting to expand upon and Rinko and Tatsurou family and clan. Characters stucks without strong enough background because pushing very contrived NTR scenario was only thing on their mind and it never was fully shaken off.

>I rather have a (you) protag.
Me too.
But out of all male MCs, Tats seems to be the most interesting one, since he is not as good as Fuuma was in TABA or RPGX. Sure, the lad has many generic anime harem MC traits, including the ladies magnet for no real reason, but he is played down enough for him not to be a Gary Stu and he could've been good underdog hero trying his best and eventually earning something good. So in terms of actual story, he has much more potential in more or less grounded setting of Taimanin, than the yellow man (he is a super genius, almost everyone likes him, he is a beast in bed, literal cheat powers in both versions, timelines depend on him, yada yada yada). That's why i like him, not sure about other people who actually want a purple haired boypussy. Not judging tho.

As of this moment in Squad's development, Main Story is consistently 1/2/3*, Common/Uncommon/Rare. Higher challenge stars = more exp/gold modifier as well as 1st time clear rewards, and will have no meaningful influence on the quality of Core drops.
Core Crafting from the Research Lab + luck with the Exchange Shop is the consistent source of 3/4/5*, Uncommon/Rare/Epic Cores, and specifically Core Crafting + using Polishing Tools to extend to potentially 6*, and Legendary Cores.

>>563562405
Murasaki is a solid PvE unit, especially in teams that you can bring your free Asagi into, notably Cursed Tree Avatar. Don't treat her like a tank, but a unit that has a mechanic similar to the Power-Up buff for your party, but at the cost of some of her HP. Immortal is mostly a meme when you are fighting against a computer that gets it, but in your hands with the right teammates, it can be very useful. Particularly when you bring buffs, and teammates who extend the duration of your buffs.
Murasaki being ignored while Protect Ally is on her entire team, and her team getting the shit kicked out of them and stealing her HP? That's bad all the time, though.
>>
>>
>>563563432
Yeah, particularly when you're just getting her leveled and are not working with consistent +9-+12 Cores and already invested teammates. Basically on her own, Murasaki is better treated as a bruiser-lite damage dealer, rather than any sort of 'tank'.
Invested, though? With a dedicated supporter unit (Mai, the twins, Emily, someone who can give her HealingOverTime), with her own weapon that gives her AoE Taunt, and with a teammate that can extend debuff duration to keep Taunt(->Murasaki) active? She becomes something that you can absolutely dedicate a setup for.
Just not from the get go.

I am going to keep using her and devoting all of my resources to leveling her up and making her stronger even if she sucks, because I love her an I always will

Is Crit Resistance multiplicative or additive against Crit Rate(?)
Like just as a scientific example, against say 38% Crit Rate, if you had 50% Crit Resistance, are you looking at 19% Crit Rate or 0(-11)% Crit Rate?
Or is it anti-Crit Dmg?
In which case, same question as well.

Of the two you listed, the Blackview C6 would probably have better hold-up potential. I think I remember the G05's having non-game ram amounts. The (Squad) devs also at least reoptimized once already, so it could end up being alright.
There's a bunch of people in this very thread who play on lowest settings, as seen in screenshots.

It's the truest endgame, though. You do that insane farm once (x8, x4, lol) and it's bonuses guaranteed to every [color] character you ever get!
They also probably (hopefully???) never intended us to go 2(+...) months of no content to distract us, leaving pure non-event farming to focus on these things.

Mai + Hisui + Fuuki + 4th tends to be pretty damn reliable vs Scylla of the Abyss, Hard and Expert, vanilla and Challenge.
Scylla's only self-healing is a challenge node that triggers a HoT heal if her Turn Start has her w/ no debuffs, so you can be pretty bulky and steady for the most part against her.

Just to help out with some general data.
Orc Warlord's P.Shields in TacTrain can be Buff Stolen/Removed/Blocked, which gives you some options.
1. (Speed): Orc Warlord seems to pretty reliably operate having 75 speed, however he also seems to reliably go before any of your 74+75 speed units, but consistently after your 76+ speed units.
This notably leaves key units: Yao Bikini (Technique, Technique atk leader aura, multi-hit S1, buff-steal S3) and Michea Silkys (Agility, Agility spd leader aura, 4-hit s1 w/ P.Shield removal). At the bare minimum, without other mechanic consideration, you can bring these units when Orc Warlord is Agility/Blue (Yao, should be Leader), and Power/Red (Silkys, should not be Leader unless using more Speed tuning).
2. BuffBlock: Check the google sheet for Squad, in the Who Has What tabs, to see who has access to this debuff to deny Orc Warlord his shields from even applying. Notables: Kiryu Mikoto (Power, also has Weaken on S1), Aoi / Tokiko (Agility, Aoi's S1 extends debuff duration, Tokiko has atk+, and also weaken on her S3), and Kirin (Technique).
3. Buff Remove: Check the legendaries in this category, mostly, as Kurenai, Saika, and Asuka are great for doing this pre-damage.
4. Extra Turn: one of the core 'hidden' mechanics to TacTraining is units who push the boss HP from 1 bar to the next (Going from D grade to C grade, for example) using a move with Extra Turn mechanics get said Extra Turn.
If you have any specific questions, just mention them.

With how agressivly it been sucking money from players for some time now(in this year RPGX only had 3 standard banners) and hearing from players about app itself having problems and their design for bosses being complete joke I thought the opposite.

Which of the two is the better Squad buff blocker: a vanilla 5* Tokiko or a vanilla 5* Kikuchi Aoi?
I'm leaning towards Tokiko because she has a chance to inflict Weaken to enemies.
>>
>>563684485
Just to last a small, impactful window of time to unleash nukes? Tokiko for the natural bulk (she's the 2nd chubbiest base HP unit in the game so far, only beaten by Eleanor's chunky chocolate ass), speed, and stuffed S3.
For the QoL value of applying BuffBlock and keeping it on the single target longer and longer? Easily Aoi with her extend-debuff-duration S1.

Yeah, Kiryu has the valuable sole responsibility as the only Power AoE (and single target) BuffBlock source, so she'll always have good security, even if they introduce another Power character that does it.
Aoi and Tokiko share the AoE slot for Agility, while Kirin is all Technique has at the moment, and just on single target. Kirara is Balanced's.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>563691539
Mikoto shares the 2nd-slowest speed stat (73) with Hayami Uzuki (purple), Narita Akina (red), Anje and Orc Bodyguard (both green).
That said, the slowest are Renee (red) and Queen Kanaloa (blue, the eye-squid) at 72 Speed.

not for me since my problem with it is primarily about the game's direction as a whole, like they really thought taimanin fans wanted a turn based auto-battler to enjoy for the gameplay element and wouldn't be interested in an actual story so they barely wrote one and now look like fucking retards as usual

It's hard to say for certain without having a solid starting date for when we -do- start getting consistently scheduled content.

Can you Grade up low characters to higher stars then use them at their upgrade levels as fodder for others?
I assume so, I assume that's the point of them in a lot of ways, fatten them up with exp to upgrade more higher/favorites over time.
And of course for someone to flex with their 6-star Orc Warlord.

You sure can. Hell, you're heavily encouraged to do so if you want to grade up 5* characters without relying on Gremory gibs or exchange items.
If you got the spare cash, buying 1* and 2* mobs from the shop is a good idea since they already come at level cap, so you can grade them up if you have enough fodder to use on them which speeds up your farming time a fair bit

I think there are some rogue (or maybe even manipulated) Taimanins at play here. It would be very dumb for the UFS to do this on the assumption Gosha is allied with Edwin and Nomad just because of that one interaction in the story. So hopefully the next chapter thickens the plot of this supposed "mysteries" it hinted by the end of the new one.

How is the monetization system in Squad legal in the first place?
I thought they (at least the EU) outlawed payments through fictional currencies.
Everything in Squad, including all pakejis, is bought with TCash, that you have to buy with real cash.
That's obfuscation of actual prices.

PSA: Don't bother with the current version of the 'Sweep' mechanic at this time. Sweep isn't taking into account ALL of the Experience modifiers active on your account. It's still applying most of it, seemingly, but appears to be lacking approx. 15% from some source.
See image, with top half = Sweep, bottom half = actual Repeat battle x1, both of which done at x2 modifier.
Typical disclaimer that I could always be retarded.

X Explode takes all existing X DoTs on the target, consumes them, and deals Y% of whatever remaining damage they would've had if they went through their full duration.

>>563736313
There are a couple units that do that, like Yuri / Pink 2B with a chance to spread confusion, but so far there's no general mechanic / debuff that spreads.
That said, we did just get Vulnerable to Poison as a new unique debuff with Anenome, so we could get a Virulent or some such debuff in the future.

Technically, the gold Fragment box (x20) are the same boxes in the Mileage and Gem sections of the Exchange Shop. Which is to say: the log-in reward of Fragment Box x20 will give you 1 result of the Box, 20 times, which CAN be but is not exclusively Kirara shards.
See image below for possible rewards. All potential rewards in this Box are balanced at 10% odds each.

An interesting interaction just happened in Arena. My opponent was down to 2 Taimanin, one of which was Murasaki at low health. So I used Ravana's Ult on Murasaki, to KO her, which would allow Ravana to attack a second time via her Ult's ability (if it KOs, she can attack again).
Murasaki's "Immortal" passive activated however, allowing her to survive the hit... however, Ravana's double-attack ability activated regardless, allowing her to attack a second time anyway.
So the game may still recognize 'Immortal' as KO in certain circumstances, even though it is not.

Yeah I ran into this levelling Saya Neo while farming Alectra shards on Edwin whose 2nd wave includes Alectra.
>>
>>563747635
Thanks. Unfortunately it just means double checking those anyway because it considers things like "steals exactly and only SpdUp" as that. Which while accurate, is extremely misleading.
Not to mention Stealing is definitely taxed higher than Removing, in chance %s or conditions.
Which is to say I'll throw some levels at Senshu in case I consider this particularly relevant.
>>
>>563748118
Yeah, I tried to mark where a unit stole any 1 random buff vs only stole specifics, though I've had to go back and update/fix things I missed in the past.
Senshu is a spec ops leader aura unit anyway, so giving her some power isn't isolated, at least.
>>
>>563748601
Yeah I noticed she's like 40% Atk buff for Moon or whatever.
Honestly my exp farm list is enough I shouldn't be touching anyone else til I've got more characters at 50/40.
I'm just very easily distracted by niche utility sounding randomly useful to getting over something that cucks my more invested characters so far, like that hag's 2 turn debuff immunity.

Why did they make her so useless? All she has is a base attack, plus a hiding move and a passive that reduces the cooldown of the hiding move.
She doesn't help the other party members, she doesn't hurt the enemy, all she does is go into stealth and wait to be killed by AoEs.
Is there a lore reason for that, was she put in the game as a joke?
>>
>>563750553
Get your Shiranui raised up and let her motherly bosom cradle you to your much less stressful victory.
Legitimately: Get your Shiranui raised up to 50, wearing at least +6 Cores in all 6 main slots. Make sure Hisui is also at least in +6's. Try and get Tina and Kaede up to 40 for more survial stats and the ability to Ability Unlock 4th star for the Module slot to unlock for more stats.
Save Shiranui's S3 for after Harbinger's first attack, which you can heal up with Hisui's S3 instead. This way you'll have Shiranui's DebuffBlock on the party for Harbinger's aoe debuff inflict attack (may have to time it depending on Speed). Immobilize and Speed Down are very valuable for this, to deny Harbinger its cooldown progress and unique debuff countdown. If you luck out with Shiranui's S2, it can even extend the unique debuff.

She will probably also end up as one and done character. Just a VN character that is added out of obligation instead having idea of how to keep her relevant in newer releases.

Non-issue as far as I'm concerned, there's hundreds of characters, it's not like the guys are taking anything away from the girls. Not sure they get much use from players, though I have seen a couple of boy band defence teams.

I honestly feel like it was good decision. Rip the bandade off early and don't try run mental gymnastics of why not include already existing male characters from previous stories or try to erase them. Seeing what happened in Browndust II is like the most nightmare scenario for what will happen if you go against even having male characters have any presence(imagine trying to erase Kyosuke, Kotaro, Tatsurou and all the other male characters ever exisitng with replacment being self insert, disaster in the making).
Keeping male characters mostly to 3 and 4 stars while making those not useless is probably most dyplomatic way they could go about it.
I think I saw only one person complain that they included male characters in this release and that is it.

>>563756524
The distinction between genshin-era "Male characters," which are fetish/appeal bait designs intended for banner sales, but with implied penises, and actual male characters is a big part of it, too.
Squad/Taimainin very notably has varied designs for males, ranging from demon bros, random incubusi, orcs, femboys, men in armor, and even dogs. These designs make sense within the setting and feel like part of the Taimaverse.
The important of kits/movesets in Squad helps dudes out, too.

MOST people are pretty healthy and sane about it. You get less weirdos that would throw tantrums over males existing in this game than you'd find unironic faggots asking why there weren't a lot more males and gay.
Such is the retardness of current year.

I don't mind, this series has cool dudes.
Momochi Toyo being able to do more than 4x the damage of Asagi makes him pretty ok in my book.

Not a problem. Great fodder and lower tiers material. Hell, even fanservice material, for some fans. I know that leaks include some 5 star males besides Edwin Black, it was Library, i think. But even that won't be a problem, since they can put them in events or mileage scam boxes.

This only happens when the game is about idolized vanilla characters, where players live in the fantasy that all the girls are supposed to only think about (You).
Since Taimanin is a hentai franchise to begin with, there's really no danger.

If things go long enough we will probably get some kind of story about how she is taken or defects same way like with Astaroth. Will she be taken with Commander or end up in Fuuma household again we will see. I want it still be Kotaro house because I find image of Fuuma household being dumping ground of Gosha for all the weird and potentially dangerous people they need to keep eyes on funny. Fits for how hard situation is for Fuuma clan after their rebellion but also ragtag nature of clan that will take various people in not looking at where they came from that you get at various points with people Danjo, Kotaro and Gaiza recruit or see value in.

Imagine he was thinking about doing his rebellion stuff in Squad but few days before going through with it he gets hit with "Momochi! Demons are going insane and attacked us! All out war out there! We gotta deal with those demons with everyone else!". He just got excuse to go all out and didn't even need to go against Gosha this time.

We will probably be hit with some rework to systems or way to get certain resources faster in about year or 2. Same thing happened with Action where it was much harder to upgrade everything to max and now you don't even think about certain resources with how easy it is to get them.
>>
>>563759596
Much more important is to be online every 10 hours and don't waste arena tickets.
It's trivial to get to Gold5 though. Honestly, I think it's best to just get to Rank Gold5, cozily collect the tokens for the battles and weekly rewards and save yourself the stress from top200.

Think about it anon
Breeding Nagi means there will be more generations of the Momochi bloodline
More generations of Momochis means more powerful taimanins
More powerful taimanins means more dead d*mons
Therefore you must breed Nagi like a prize mare RIGHT NOW if we are to get TOTAL DEMON DEATH

In terms of accessing certain characters months ahead of non-paying players, yes. That is blatantly the way Step Up Package characters operate.
In terms of being able to clear currently existing content (Spec Ops, Extermination Mode, TacTraining, Challenge Modes)? Pay methods can make it faster, but right now, what else is there to focus your Squad time on anyway? RNG luck with good Cores will be the ultimate trial no matter what.
Arena? The ability to reach Gold5 rank is just a matter of consistently spending your Arena tickets so they don't overcap at 10/10. There isn't a meaningful enough difference between Gold5 and Top 200 (it's ~2-4 addtional RNG boxes, when you already get them), and the more valuable Arena currency is obtained from doing Arena fights, win or lose.
Pay2 right now is basically just the Step Up Packages, Rank Up Packages (for permanent exp/gold modifiers), and T-Cash itself for Clan benefits. Aside from SUP characters, it's minimal.
>>563760347
Cute, dumb Murasaki. A character needs to wear 4 of them for the bonus to take effect.
>>563760515
Vanilla: You craft better-than-3star-rare versions for your characters as you are comfortably able to move past wearing +6 3star Rare gear.
Arena: You can craft Inflict/Resist Debuff gear for certain support characters, like Tokiko, or maybe for a poison team now that we have Anemone and Snake Lady, but these are "I have a specific team idea in mind" crafts, not general purpose.
Clan: You craft Speed cores for units you want to go fast, and use remaining Balanced core parts to either merge into more Speed parts, or make some Balanced sets for bulkier support/defensive units.

The demons got his balls, which is why he needs Nagi to continue the Momochi bloodline but she's too goddamn autistic to actually hook up with someone without scaring them off with an hour long lecture about the Momochi clan's history

Since we got new cores with the new story chapter, does this mean we're getting new ones every new chapter?
I can only imagine stuff like
>Dmg increase
>Dmg reduction
>Buff success
>CD reduction
>Double the Leader Aura effect
>DoT immunity
>>

>>563761686
Yeah, you can see the active effects on the blue line, under the cores. You can have 3 set effects with 2/2 cores or one 4/4 core set effect with remaining 2/2 core set. Modules don't give set effects right now.

Ehhh it's not that bad. There's not even much to DO and the top arena teams actually involve a lot of low rarity units.
It will takw some time, but we've got plenty of that. There's literally nothing going on in squad.
In fact if you wanna go meta

You need only 4 copies of a supporter to max it in Action.
How many copies do you need to grade-upgrade AND max all the skills of a single unit in Squad?
How many units are in Squad comparative to how many supporters we had in Action at a similar age?

Nah, motherhood is a huge deal for Asagi. If she gave birth to Nagi, in a vanilla or transactional (willing) way, then Asagi would actually just focus on her, even abandoning Taimanin duty. She got hit hard by the "i am actually a woman too" shit early in her life.

You don't meaningfully, at this time, need a unit to have its skills maxed to achieve victories in Squad's content. SpecOps, TacTrain, Extermination, and Challenge Modes are attainable successes with level 50+ and wearing +9 Cores, let alone farming.
Arena's top 100+ range does have high Speed, high power units, but the top ranks are maintained more through spending gems for more arena tickets, which IS legitimate P2W behavior. A F2P player can still reasonable defeat teams in this power/speed range due to Cores representing so much power, and Defense teams being handicapped by computer decision making. The difference between reaching Gold5 and staying in Top200 is going from 3-5 randomized reward boxes every week to 6-8 of the same randomized reward boxes.
Squad's overall design is definitely rife with "Pay $ for the convenience of reducing the time required to get results," in the form of exp/gold modifiers, stamina modifiers, and more rolls resulting in more skill levels from dupes, no doubt.
It's just not meaningful or 'necessary' for the content level we're dealing with as of now. All of the "Win" aspect of the P2W is internally motivated, aside from buying more arena tickets to maintain top200 status.

Not really, she just got reminded that she can't really have that simple happiness. The moment Kosuke hit her with that fake Ninja Art and admitted, Asagi folded and tried again, damn the consequences. Which didn't go well (again).

Yeah but you don't exactly NEED to max out units. Just having them is plenty.
Like these are from top 10 teams in the Arena. Many aren't even level 60.
