>>537865593>shitholes overrun by retarded shithead governors making stupid laws somehow mean their stupid laws apply to the rest of the worldFemale castration is legal and common in many african countries but that doesn't make it not barbaric and stupid. Jerking off to and drawing lewd fictional characters isn't illegal in the rest of the world where common sense still exists.
>>537865738only if you're going for top 500
>>537865738No, sadly BA PVP isn't like Kancolle's
>>537865738Nobody does this in top 100 and ranks above 100 don't matter.
>>537865631california, we might be the shithole that bred the west's new gender worship cult, but at least we dont throw people in prison for jerking it to drawings
>>537865815I'm almost rank 500 on the EU and I'm wondering why several 90lvl senseis had 70lvl students in the first spot.
>>537865738No, the system checks itself after a certain proficiency level so you get punished by your peers for making non optimal decisions
>>537865857Most of the US doesn't do that. California isn't really all that exceptional.
>>537865810>shitholes overrun by retarded shithead governors making stupid laws somehow mean their stupid laws apply to the rest of the worldyou clearly haven't seen how the UK's retarded laws have forced changes for Google, Android, Facebook, Nintendo, Steam and many other big corpos all around the globe.

Why do women use gigantic wads of toilet paper just to wipe their stinky piss soaked vaginas, and then just leave that shit in the toilet
In my country (poand) we have laws explicitly stating that any porn of character bellow 18 is verboten. Despite that most people who are charged with that have them dropped, ASSUMING someone cares enough to even report that.
>>537865856you mean below
>>537865943that bitch wouldn't shut the fuck up and let me listen to the dope boss music
>>537865943sorry arona my pakeji money goes elsewhere this month
>>537866009convicted spousal abuse felon
>>537865985Again, a retarded government making retarded laws doesn't override common sense. The government also wants you to willingly give away all your private data because they said so, that doesn't mean it is right. And so, just because a certain government says that jerking off to drawings is illegal doesn't mean that it is actually a bad thing. If the government tells you to chop off your penis because now having a penis is illegal, would you do it?
>>537866253
>>537866183So we can shake our dinks and leave piss droplets all over the seat and not feel bad about it.
>>537865738legit strategy to farm coins but in reverse. you put a low level student so level 90's think it's easy then your ue50 m777 t10 equip s.hanako goes to work on them.i've got like 90% win rate on defense thanks to this. i always float around 200-350 doing this since about 65. the only thing that really gives me trouble is iori cause she just 1 shots my yuuka and then it bounces off yuuka and then hits somebody behind her killing them too.i get about the same daily coins as a rank 100-200 sometimes. less pyrro though. i feel people noticed my name and student picture so they don't click it as often anymore though. some days i was getting 10+ wins

>>537866808Uh oh that's heckin illegal!
>>537866501beggars can't be choosers. i try to break into 100-200 for the daily claim but this gimmick doesn't really work on them and i get kicked out quickly. i haven't really upgraded my pvp students in a while i cause i was saving for raids. now i spent everything i have on raids so i still can't upgrade them. i feel investing onto my pvp students earned me a shit ton of coins. i lack a kinda critical element to stay 100-200 regularly.

Hey I'm a bit new, so I wanna know if this is a common problem or not. So far I've done like 120 pulls for Rei and all of the 3 stars I've gotten have been different characters. It was nice at first, but then it started to get annoying really fast. I get that she's not guaranteed, but I just wanna know what the actual percentage is for these recruits.Also, side note, I just finished the """final""" chapter and I cried like a fag

How come Nexon’s art mandates didn’t reject Mx2J’s shit like qMarina and gKaede? Or were they implemented because of him?
>>537875850The first of many.
>>537875850Just mating press her. It's what she wants.
>>537875869Easy, Mx2J made nexon money with C&C and rabbits and put trust in him to NOT give shit designs and we know where that went. The bigger question is how did isaacq have that much trust from everyone after his disastrous handling of BA year 1 and his background
>>537875850you are married

It's okay sensei, Wakamo understands that you are going to be too bussy playing Silksong to do her raid

I am genuinely considering buying a steam deck. For a moment I thought of buying a laptop for everyday use first and then build a gaming pc. But what if I just buy a steam deck along with a dock? Blue Archive emulation also seems to be working just fine on the deck since it runs KDE in the background AKA wayland and there's also the steam client running flawless on linux

>>537876632I bought a tablet just for BA and manga and it was absolutely worth it. Very comfy to do content out on my rocker or deck in the early morning.But now that it's on Steam yeah, a steam deck is the best multi use option

>>537865482according to german law, watching 2d loli is fine as long as its clear the character isnt based on a real person.So you only risk it if you watch shit with a realistic artstyle or if its shit like shadman, who draws 2d porn of real life children.now owning 2d porn in the form of a doujin... thats a different beast
>>537879492metacucks our respomse?
>>537879128They keep releasing special dps while forgetting that the good buffers are limited

Are you skipping shupos[]Yes[]No[]It depends[X]FOTM
>>537879954>Usually said by people who claim V3 is the greatest story in the history of all stories mankind has ever createdThis is true tho
Stop making fun of Mari for enjoying a good meal
>>537879954you lost me when you had to insert your vol 3 schizophrenia into the post
>>537879816the funny thing is, the same poll was already 2 days old until someone reposted it, asking for people to "vote skip".Skipfags truly are a special breed
>>537879954Shupos are the best addition to the game in years and volume 3 is objectively the best story volume though?
>>537879462>Because sMika made Nozomi irrelevant.I would say Nagusa is the one worst affected by sMika.I think Nozomi might still be worthwhile since they have different armor types, opposite main terrain advantage/disadvantage.sMika is also front position which could complicate things perhaps in positioning/taking damage.It's also always better to have a backup in case of scoremalding or if a new boss shows up that BTFO's our conventional measures like Geburah did the first time on JP.
>>537880138Yikes.
>>537879954Shupokeks can't understand kino and soul
>>537879954>V3 is the greatest story in the history of all stories mankind has ever createdCorrect.
>>537880138Why does this always happen with the "silent majority"?

Ok, ok: so if the skipogakis come home in 200, I'll grab dSaoriIf they don't, I'll get her anyways because life's been good lately

>>537880138Why are you lying Shupokeks
>>537880580just get lucky. there is no way you'll have to spark both saori and shupos
Man phase 1 of wakaboat is so fucking random. I do anything right, but Neru decides to walk right up to wakamo's gun and die after she finishes running away. I don't know if this is a torment only thing, but it took seven runs of me doing the exact same thing every time for finally Neru to not die.
>>537880580Roll for Saori Roll for Aru Roll for Kayoko
To be honest Volume 4 is actually better than Volume 3.You know it to be true.
>>537880674>it's not 2 days it's just 1 day!!made me chuckle
>>537880675>male: instant_loss
If you skip the shupo's, then good luck on getting plat on purple raids until global gets sMika.
>>537880209>best story>objectivelyThe writers were smart by only telling you 60% of the story. With non-storytelling, it forces the reader to fill the gaps. This in turn creates the illusion of something greater. I agree it was good, but it could have been better.

Will Nexon ever do anything else with the blue archive ip? Even a spin-off game would be nice. Similar to what Manjuu did with Azure Lane Crosswave.

But who is she?
>>537881658We need a fighting game
Is Niya used for purple Tiph? The reentry clears don't have her, but I'm assuming they were made before she released.
>>537881658There are two spin off manga
I got the artbook
>>537881972
>>537882654why
>>537882332Niya was released the day after purple tiph ended, so we have no idea until it reruns. But Niya's sub overlaps with Kisaki's sub, and you can't field swimsuit Seia there because of the armor type, so I'm not really sure. I personally think she'll be used for whatever purple raid Nexon has in the oven.
>>537882697Thanks. I'm getting her either way and I'm sure she'll be useful, just not sure what for yet
>>537882332Been looking and all of them just use the Shupos and a full support teamI don't think there will be much change.

>>537883401Nice to meet you canon wife Fuuka.
>>537883252When they accelerate they also reduce the duration of Limit Break Raids so I don't believe that will happen, so even if we were to get Niya a week earlier, Tiph would also end a week earlier.

How big is your Blue Archive hentai folder?Mine's 1.7 GB.
>can't post mika art>can't post hina without spoilers>wakamo is dead and forgotten>the game gets dripfeed of content, Nexon considers project RX more importantMonkey runs this general, sorry if it's too hard for you to swallow this truth, /bag/
I would fuck the monkey in his tight little butthole. I bet he squeals like a bitch in heat.
That's a big mention
>>5378925420 GB, all the hentai is stored in my brain
>>537889887I want fuck plana even if she moans to stop it because it hurts then
i like the guy who makes the monkey pictures. the tranny color/shaped halo + haircut cracks me up. that picture with sensei hanging the monkey really sticks in my mind
>>537892439Yep, that's our monkey, always being obvious so that everyone in this general can feel his presence at all times
>monkey>monkey, japan
I love this monkey.

>>537893067>ai voicekill yourself
Total reisa ryona
>>537892887she's useful for the first stage, when wakamo pulls out her weapon you place peroro in front of her to block it
>>537892887Spam Peroro as much as you can if Insane

Racism is a sin, and Jesus
>>537893067>Lain openingNice

>>537892887Hifumi at 6-7 at the start around when Wakamer starting her skillNY.FuukaHimariMikaThen rinse and repeat This is with the assumption you have Fubuki/Kayoko filling up the stun gauge
>>537886868I could get her to 1.5M thanks to learning when the skills come up after an hour and end up using another teamHope arona can finally give me kokonaIm going to see whats meta so i can upgrade those unitsEventuallyThanks anyway
>>537893001asian women and can't cosplay
>>537892887toss Peroro between your tank and Wakamo so she shoots the doll and the ricochet hits your tankthe hard part of this strat is when she starts running to the edge of the resort and you need to quickly toss a Peroro into the right position so one of your other students doesn't get taken out when she casts her skill, which is immediately after your tank comes into range, then you have to cycle back to Peroro to toss it to bait her shotgun blast attack away so it doesn't destroy your team
>>537892849Seethe
>>537893149Kazusa's wet dream
Release her
>>537893148https://youtu.be/1GwDl-XIBoM?si=KWDdtqq4XGbs7W7bOh my gotto!
>>537889462bro why did you redeem
I redeemed
>>537893360Hi Neruposter, haven't seen you much on /v/, what happened? Akanefag is too obnoxious, please come back
>>537893439Did you save a loading pic?
>>537893583She won't load until she is free from NPC jail
do I redeem? I see a lot of anons posting picture of non redemed students along with like 600 of their elephs lol
>>537876974teen marriage and pregnancy? sounds about right
>>537893719>I see a lot of anons posting picture of non redemed students along with like 600 of their elephs lolThey are whales who have lots of ligma, it's better to redeem the student since spooks give you more ligma
>>537893482koyuki doesn't really fit the role of a scammer because she gave us apologems, she's the real nigerian prince giving away her money
>>537893719Yes, ALL the JFD students should be redeemed as soon as possible.
We do not redeem here
Can I whale my way out to lvl 90 and get enough items for my students?
>>537893854>she gave us apologemsArona will remeber this, SenseiPrepare spark for the next banner you'll roll for
I never invest in students because I'm not sure if spending a month worth of collecting resources will help me clear the next raid difficulty.
>>537894008Yes and no. Time gates still wall you
>>537894112students with off-shoulder clothes make me act unwise
>>537893851>it's better to redeem the student since spooks give you more ligmaif you spook her you will save 90 elephs.
>>537893719Redeem if you can use her
>>537877895too bad, i dont give a shit about these gameno cute girl no play
>>537894064I'm almost ready to spark both train brats if need be
I wasted my jfd on natsu how bricked am I?
>>537894008with enough money you can do anything
>>537864874Why'd you use the stink clouds version?
Why does /bag/ hate futa and yuri so much but is okay with sticky note cuck sensei??
>>537894209I don't need 90 elephs of Zoos, fuck you
>>537894209the elephs of a JFD student aren't valuable at all because you can easily get enough coins to buy all 3 every month before even reaching max level
im baking seia bread
>537894275good morning for /u/, monkey
>>537894275Monkey, my bro, we're almost at bump limit, save the bait for the next thread, ok?
>>537894351>ever buying Tsurugi or SumireI'd hate to literally buy out the rest of the sohp first before I brick myself by getting them lol.
We should have an Akari thread.
>>537894460>he doesn't have Tsurugi most gay sensei of /bag/
>>537894591NO
Xhe just never recovered, I guess
>Steampage crashedI blame Koyuki
>>537894613It baffles me that the hack was more fun and had more fanart than the baseball event, Nexon should hire better writers already
>>537894263I like her expression in this one better
You should hire me
>>537894753I second this, maybe someone like pikachu revives the hype
>>537894847>>537894847>>537894847
>>537893307your lineup would work better with p.noa cause your utaha(it's got 20 bond gear right?). if you really want to do mika you can switch to a special healer like s.atsuko and simply heal the turret and then use a 4th dps student for hit count. atsuko+utaha really isn't that good and you don't have any weakess debuff. the amount of healing atsuko striker does is really pitiful a single heal from a raised healer like serina does much more. i used atsuko cause i don't have any other choice since my seia needs to be healed or she dies to the rocket barrage and i also need to heal the turret passively for a bit.
>>537894238Natsu isn't in the jfd shop
>>537888047I'm tired from wanking to Yuuka
>>537889142Based
>>537896005that's what I meant. I would say it's getting out of hand, but the problem is, it's quite the opposite
