You cannot tell the depth of the yin cauldron, until you see the bottom.

Why are jeets so obsessed with numbers?

>>550444270
google remind me which gender the yin is

Okay someone was explaining me Yingying on the previous thread.
Why does she have to pretend to be a man? Why was she expelled from her city? All in all she seems like a terrible person, the game wants you to like the Ember but as far as I understand, it's like a Mafia boss and she wants to go back to her city and reclaim her power.
Still I don't see how trying to be a dude fits into the whole scheme.

>>550444283

>>550444340
yin refers to feminine essence. cauldrons are used to craft breakthrough materials in cultivation stories, so a yin cauldron is a woman who's used to help a man breakthrough in his cultivation through sexual means at the detriment to the woman's qi

I think she lost a power struggle in Weiyang city and got exiled, got her ass kicked in da hood, then Grandma Turtle adopted her and she lives as Yingying while she schemes to get her position back. She is a terrible person but she's gradually getting better. Nevertheless she is inherently sneaky and actively undermining her host nation. Her bio explains how one of her first actions in Kaifeng was to cause a panic.

>>550444809
Today I met a dude who had less than 1.1k goose at 65, had no idea what he should be doing or about any of his upgrades. If anything timegate is too lenient.
Retards should be taught in time the 200 different systems in the game, and the chinks really didn't make it easy for them
They faceroll through their recommended level difficulty story then get fucked in sword trials / hero's realm.
I think a mentorship program would make a lot of sense, there's already master/disciple system but It's too limited, I get whispers from people asking me about how to play the game and If I could be their master etc, and I have to keep telling them sorry dude there's no space every day

I mean nothing outside of legend really requires any sort of minmaxing or even real attention to mechanics and legendchads all know how to do basic research and ask questions.
The issue with co-op is 100% just typical retardation and ignoring mechanics. Which to be fair partially the devs fault for those stupid fucking scrolling info banners that don't work but even still a huge portion of the playerbase will always need to be carried.

Terrible gameplay loop. I know they've been trying to cater to casuals and femoids (who are more likely to pay for social stuff such as costumes and stupid fireworks) but the daily activities are literally Genshin Impact minus anime waifus.
They also promised to fix lag, but then flooded the game with 6 million mobile players.
So if the gameplay is just dress-up Genshin Impact, with laggy PvP, shallow mini-games, and popularity contest autism (sect votes, face likes, article likes, signpost likes), people who prefer classic MMO experience would automatically get filtered out.

>>550445627
You have to take it slow. Use a lot of emotes, give them compliments, talk to them, play with them. Don't go straight to ERP. Slowly be lewder and lewder over time. Start with emotes kiss emotes, lewd jokes, etc. Tell them that they're mature for their age, get them to do small favors for you, be the leader when you spend time together.

>>550445407
In my experience people just lack guidance really badly, I've seen so many hit a wall in sword trials in the past 2 tiers, the cracks in their upgrades started to widen because they did not learn how to/what to upgrade during that time, they did not learn the mechanics of the bosses and were easily carried until there. Now because of their garbage upgrades they get one shot over and over and waste revive charges.
I talked to many of them, told them about mechanics and what upgrade paths they can take and what to focus on etc, even the shitty improvement guide helps a lot if they can even spot it in the first place, and seen substantial improvements as a result.
While there's always gonna be retards, the game is extremely shit at explaining things and guiding players through leveling and I believe most of the playerbase can be redeemed if they started working on that.
Of course you have to keep in mind this is all in the west, the chinks are probably used to all of this esoteric bullshit UI in the first place and get a steady stream of the required information from their communities.

meh, people getting blown up by simple damage is not really a problem far as I can tell outside the first day of a new gear tier (and even I get blown up)
the issue is mechanics, people straight up not doing them causing it to wipe the few people carrying the raid
retards still have no fucking idea about wraiths and we've had wanshan around for how long now?
The game certainly is difficult to navigate and it needs to be improved but I maintain that most of the upgrades are far from necessary with how content is currently tuned.
Dysfunctional retards are just the norm in these games.

The outside of the city is awesome, I love it, but the inside of the city makes me hate everything. What exactly where they thinking with this part of the map? The visuals? The scope?

1080p. The thing set me at me High on almost everything by default and I've already dropped lighting and reflection down to medium. You can see the game is only using like 70% of both my GPU and CPU so I'm really confused as to why it's doing this. What do I even drop at this point? AO? Tessellation?

>>550447413
I never said it was confusing, I said everyone has dialogue vomit. Actually running around it is an alright experience, I just don't find exploring it as fun as any of the outskirts because it's just a million NPCs that all have dialogue but nothing to say which I doubt is a commentary on modern society.

>>550447654
Oh no, a 15% buff instead of 20%! How can I live without it?

>>550447429
stratsword + nameless spear is a lot more aggressive since you're using your spear Q to recover stam to fuel stratsword's bleed spam (or dodge if you need to), and when the boss is stationary/stance broken you can hold charge for the funny. Nameless is also really good at proccing shit since the hold attack does a bazillion hits, so it's great when you run fivefold bleed, which is also a decent option for strat sword. I run bitter season with it for the dotmaxx autism, but it's actually not that good and you can put in something else in there.

you can also drop wolfchaser for a different inner because nameless' isn't that important.

in pvp it's a pretty strong combo machine, but then again, it's hard to combo with the ping in global. Nameless spear is still pretty gay with the insta stun though, but I haven't pvp'd all that much.

I pretty frequently top damage in rooms just fucking around, and if I see someone doing better, I can lock in and go from 2nd to 1st on the next round. Strat sword just does that much damage.

But somehow in the heroes assembly he didn't dress up as Shen Yilun and still called himself Shen Yilun.

Even if Evernormal storyline was supposed to take place before heroes assembly, the Zheng E in that cutscene must still dress up as Shen Yilun.

The damage reduction is not bad for legend singleplayer but not important online. In raids it mainly exists just to give you the empowered Mo Dao Q and to reapply the 10% vulnerable debuff (which also benefits your teammates)

Meltdown...? What? Isn't it true that writers consciously choose what narrative they wanted to push, regardless of historical accuracy? For example, the reason women weren't taken seriously in ancient times was because scholars and warriors were men.
But in this game there is no such thing. Women are proven to be equal with men in both martial arts and smarts, I mean just look at Murong Yuan.
Hence there really is no reason to push the sexism narrative on Ember of the East (Yingying) other than feminist propaganda.
The women writers of this game wanted women to be strong and independent, but also victims of sexism. It doesn't make any sense.

>>550449598

Mo blade it is then I think. I originally came into the game thinking I was gonna be able to use rope dart as my primary weapon and was sorely disappointed, then I shifted to the swords and find them kinda boring. I like how well rounded they are but I'm not a one handed sword kinda guy. Is double spears decent in pve too or is it just a pvp meme build, cause if not then I'm hard rerolling to mo blade spear right now.

Meant to ask, could someone clear up something with the end of the Qinghe story?
They implied it was only a few days since the Blissful Retreat burning where you specifically were presumed dead along with Ruby and Killerblade. Why in the world is everyone treating you like you're some rando including Yaoyao even when you're not wearing the mask? No one recognizes you at all or that you survived? Did I miss Han using some Face Off magic on your face to everyone else?

I assume Han explained stuff since I haven't progressed at all into the actual Kaifeng story outside of getting here, but none of that scenario made sense especially when you go to turn stuff into Yaoyao and she's like "Huh, why do you want to know stuff wanderer?". MC doesn't even shy away from explaining they're from Blissful Retreat or anything in some discussions and the people in Harvestfall even recognize you the same after the event so I don't get it.

>>550449857
I've been pleasantly surprised by how well spears perform in PVE (Legend)

You are canonically wearing a mask. Also some of them recognized you but chose to stay silent and pretend they don't know you.

>>550450295
>You are canonically wearing a mask.
But if that was the case shouldn't it auto-equip it like when you're at the Ghostlight Market when speaking to these NPCs even if it's just a temporary thing that unequips after the discussion? It just adds unnecessary confusion as to why everyone acts like this.
>Also some of them recognized you but chose to stay silent and pretend they don't know you.
Who? I don't recall anyone doing that, even the kids who adored you don't recognize you.

>>550449158
> is it really better than the swallowcall set
It's not even close lol. 15% more damage on just light attacks ~half the fight with an extra 5% vs exhausted. So on average, you're getting like an 8 - 9% damage boost consistently, and only on light attacks. Hawkwing is a permanent 10%. The flat stats are also affinity vs min damage which also isn't comparable. Even the defensive set you get alongside Hawkwing is just way better

>>550450489
nta but they went pretty light on the mask mechanics even at ghostlight (its only required for purchasing) and ultimately it's a game that makes all its money on cosmetics so forcing players to wear masks any time they want to hang out in Qinghe might have been struck down
it's just one of those gameplay-story disconnects of which there are plenty

>For example, the reason women weren't taken seriously in ancient times was because scholars and warriors were men.
>But in this game there is no such thing

I think it's important to understand that the jianghu is by no means representative of regular Chinese culture. Part of what makes people of the jianghu strange and even fearsome to regular people is that they disregard many social norms that constitute the average Chinese peasant experience.

An easy example is how the sifu functions as father figure in most wuxia fiction, instead of the xia's actual biological father. This is significant because it departs from traditional Confucian virtues where one is supposed to honor and respect their forebears, even if they are literally objectively wrong, and supplants it.

That said, every character in these stories are still influenced by the values of the normie life they came from. Although in this world of crazy martial arts and internal cultivation, women can be the physical equals of men through diligent work and proper technique, that is not the reality for the vast majority of Chinese peasant women. Objectively speaking as far as setting logic goes, sure, women can kick as much ass as men if they practice martial arts, but that doesn't mean there aren't still differences between the sexes, and that doesn't mean the average peasant woman still absolutely can't get bowled over and instalossed by random bandit men. That informs values

It's not that difficult to grasp if you try to think about how life actually is for the average normie in these settings

>>550450489
Forced equip is a bothersome thing and only applied to Ghost market as a gimmick that everybody hates. Now imagine if they also apply forced equip to the entire Qinghe.
>Who? I don't recall anyone doing that, even the kids who adored you don't recognize you.
Yaoyao only pretends. She began by saying "You..." then continued "Outlander, do you need healing?". There's also that merchant who recognized you even with mask on at the beginning of Kaifeng.

>>550450737
>unless you bought a patented ghost light market.tm
It actually just gave me a free one when I got there via the bounty quest. I spoke to a random NPC, they went "Whoa there buddy, we don't take kindly to smoothskins, where's your mask?" and then I got a rat one out of nowhere for free and went "Haha, I'm actually one of you" and then I could go to any shop.

>>550450819
>so forcing players to wear masks any time they want to hang out in Qinghe might have been struck down
That's why it would just be temporary for the discussion just to make it flow better. Once you got out of a discussion it would put you back into your face accessory or wouldn't even replace it if you are wearing another mask.

>>550450157
Everyone still recognizes you but spread the story of a fake death (the whole scene of the storyteller talking at the end) to protect you from the eyes of Aureate pavilion.
Yao yaoyao messes up the first time you talk to her after the scene because she downright calls you young master before correcting herself afterwards

>>550450157
it's just a gameplay conceit because the devs understand people don't necessarily want to wear a mask all the time dude. Canonically, you are disguising yourself, and even then some npcs recognize you, or at least realize that you look suspiciously like the late young master

>>550450924
You could suggest it I suppose, in the meantime use the regional outfit feature to stick a mask on yourself whenever you teleport there for max immersion. Sure wish it worked for Ghostlight Market

hey at least you move general off the wraith spawn
I had a sword trial today where one wraith would near instantly blow up while i was soloing the other one because tank stayed in the corner, it happened 3 times before we finally collapsed

>>550451039
>because the devs understand people don't necessarily want to wear a mask all the time dude
I get that, I'm just saying during discussions it would make more sense to temporarily have it so the whole concept makes more sense because the Ghostlight Market functions similarly. That way it wouldn't be as confusing as to why random people act like they have no idea who you are.

>>550451050
>You could suggest it I suppose
I did. Again, I don't want it as a permanent thing you have to manually unequip like Ghostlight, just during discussions after the event.

2. xiaoping neg diffed those two transbians

>>550451209
You cant save stupidity anon
sometimes it just aint your fault
what the dpskeks dont get it is that the most greedy way to fight general is to ignore the wraith completely
eyeball the explosion to dodge out and resume dpsing like a greedy bastard
the problem is they usually dont open their eyes

>>550451531
I literally do it. Why are you so afraid of them? Even in the 61 trials you can solo kill them in basically one combo. As long as you're between the boss and the mob you can easily kill it yourself
I see why you feel helpless as a tank. It sounds like you just sit there blocking and hoping the fight ends

>>550451209
try seeing it from our perspective
if we arent the top dps we will be labeled as shitters even if it clears
if im not top i rather we all die instead

I think from now on if the team doesn't kill the other wraith, I'm just going to jump in and eat the explosion with them and wipe. You can't heal the retards afterwards and they 100% die during the next phase and they think its because the healer is refusing to heal them and of course nobody else actually tries to get out of the AOE

>>550451735
Literally every player in the team is capable of killing the wraiths solo. Even the healers. Yes it sucks dick if people are retarded because you have to pick up the slack, but unless you also aren't paying attention, there's no reason it should ever wipe you. Even when the wraith reaches the boss is takes like 2 seconds to blow up and you've got the entire trip there to kill it.

>>550452437
for some reason i think that skill will have very little to do with guild fights

>>550452324
Everyone likes me though. Because I don't spend all day bitching. You should've gotten the bitching about pugs being dogshit out of your system like 3 weeks ago when wraiths became capable of killing people and all the retards had yet to learn. By now you should know that a single Soaring Spin does 70% of their health, more as a healer since they get a 20% mystic arts amp, and the team is gonna survive at least one explosion even if you're somehow incapable of getting to the second.
Your post was a 'lol watch me have my joker moment these fags don't deserve to win'. And you're right, they don't. But if you're gonna refuse to do the guaranteed success just because it's a little bit more annoying for you, you're a fag. They're all gonna leave the run after and you'll be forced to requeue and redo all the damage until then anyway. You aren't teaching them a lesson. For them this is every single run. Just get it over with.

Our guild had a guy at 293% that responded to no one and eventually somehow turned off the ability to send requests. Can we trade. I'm sure we'll all give likes

Some people are just retarded. 90% accept after I tell them in DM to let me in for healing, or to accept the healing request. Sometimes it's also just bugged for them.

Honestly, Wonpil is sexier than any of the jade beauties here and he also bakes our non-schizo threads. I'm crushing hard. Such a coy boy too...
