Another year with spider mech daughters!
bonus spiders
>>1365782Benny is my favorite spider
>>1365779cute morris
>Love the designs>Completely filtered by the equipment systemHaving to sort through the hundreds of pieces of equipment you farm makes my head spin...
>>1368378it really helps to have a system/method for going through gear but even then yeah, sorting gear is pretty tediousbeing able to run stage 11 for clears/dumping energy without having to worry about the gear drops is top comfy though
>>1368378At this point, if I glance at it and I don't immediately think "wow that's a lot of attack/speed/etc" I just trash it>still don't have enough trashed gold attributes to cast my good gearI just want to min/max my mediocre sets...
also clarice is in the shop
>>1369382Also Phantom! If you still don't have your speed booster to win pvp forever now's your chance
Happy new year everyone!
somehow still chilling
>Grace getting a MAshe still carries me through most events when I feel lazy
>>1371138>hot springslets go
Stopped playing for a long time but I still feel happy whenever I see this game still cling on. Enjoy your game and have a good year lads.
>>1370265>>1371230Thanks, happy new year m80s
>this is it! this is the run>it was not the runit keeps happeningi guesssss i'll just bring ruby sirius instead of feidy, i'm spending too much time on this as it is
>>1374973god that dark zone was painfulthank you meguca
>>1375467
man, are they running out of ideas for Reception Room units? 3x of the same unit name?
>>1376568One in each flavor, just like the raid boss.Pros: we might get sunglasses KrakenCons: have to wait longer for Kale or whatever the third raid boss was called
>>1376627I'm glad they decided to go with releasing all the colour variants, appeals greatly to my collection autism.
>Distant Trial???
>>1382822new game mode!one of the rewards is the cat orb currency so I'm definitely farming that instead of doing actual cat orb battles
>>1383035>new monthly bonbon xxlYes, YES
>>1382822>roguelite modeokay, seems pretty fun
>collecting distant trial blessings>one of them makes 3/4 of your team effectively out of combat, while buffing the remaining AG>entire run is a pain because the single AG doesn't make up for the rest of the team>final boss was even worse, because it was the shackles, who debuffs your acc, gives itself stealth, and counters on deflecti'm never picking this dumb blessing ever again
The statue Grace got (and the event currency) is the Venus de Milo, but with wings? I don't get why it has wings.
>>1383697who have you guys been using bonbons on?mine have all gone into MA rela, mel, and feidy because i like embut i also just realized that all the xingyaos and kraken can ONLY use bonbons so that's a terrible thought
>>1385586The MAs get really big bonuses from them, it's pretty much between them and, idk, Phantom. Kraken and green-element Xingyao get status acc which is ok but not crucial. If you use them a lot then consider getting the first data linkage which has the stat bonus but also has a team buff. Otherwise, bonboning them is more of a luxury for later, if you really like them.
BIG wings
>>1388048that's a lot of sexo in one image
>>1388048All you can eat fried chicken
>Golden CuddleI did wonder about the follow-up to deep sea beacon
>>1393515i should've expected the story to be just as it was, but the ending was sweet
holy
>>1397828downgrade
i can't believe it, i actually had a dream with ma feidyit wasn't anything special, in fact it was mostly her in her armor zooming around some ruined desert rescuing people, but it was very vividly her at least and lasted a good while
>Pepe skinPepe has a skin?!
>>1404789>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqnSVyY36msdamn, she's cute
>>1397828wait a minute, this pavo is an alt? i thought it was just fanarti think we're not far off from CN in terms of new characters now, but i just want the new rela
>>1413499Yeah there's some kinda mini-Pavo like what happened to Shyura. I kinda assume this is the dev's response to the Pavonis skin having her boobs downgraded all the way to to flat-chested for the censored Chinese version
https://twitter.com/ArterygearEN/status/1762010449825153527>supernova rela next monththank goodness we're still hanging in there...somehow
>>1414172relabros stay winning
>>1414172how the fuck are we doing this? bottom of the revenue list and yet we still have a consistent schedule
>rela on 11th summon>second copy took until 230ow, guess i should've saved hardergood luck anons
yellow element what the fuck is thisthey weren't anything special otherwise though, and the rewards were the same
>Yuyi UE gives attack boost with the bonus turnDon't mind if I do.
>reading her reviews>rip>sobGive it to me straight, is she still alive?
>>1422223well, that's complicated, but the short answer is yesthe version we have is during a particular point in the main story
>>1422260I'm even more confused now.
>>1422264iirc yuyi released during the events of chapter 8, but then a lot more stuff happens in chapters 9 and 10
>>1422294So is she still alive after?
https://cafe.naver.com/arterygearfusion/18212>KR is going into maintenance modebros...
>>1423282
So I saw the news that KR announced its final chapter. Is it ending EOS-style or is it final like “Blue Archive” final style that is just end of Part 1?
>>1423585based on what anon posted I think the KR servers are staying open but no more content updates of any kind
>30 more shards and i could buy the last copy i needed for r6>get her on the last summon anywaysof course
uh?!https://twitter.com/ArterygearEN/status/1773201616247615601
>>1436644>haven't played in several months>0 gems in account>really like nepsfuck
>>1436666it takes a lot of time, but the permanent event archive gives a bunch of crystals and especially tickets which you should be able to convert to collab tickets
>>1436644Wasn’t the game dying?
Server merge soon..
>no rise of the cat orbs this yearwhat a shame
look at that, we're still getting roadmaps too>https://twitter.com/ArterygearEN/status/1776837309255852215nice that MA mel got an armament

>>1449859>all of their kits feel surprisingly tameagree, just plain first year kit
Have they made an artbook i can buy yet
>>1451202there's almost never any official uploads of art as it isonce i found an official artist who uploaded some to pixiv, but aside from that there's been some direct game rips and that's about it
hey fellas played this for a week or 2 last year or maybe even the year before (during the kaguya woo toot toot event) and really liked the story (i teared up when mel got eaten or whatever it was) but stopped because of all the things to keep track of, and because i thought the game was going to imminently EoS.is the game in a solid place? it looks like it is just from reading this thread. if its got some more life left ill redownload it. Thanks
>>1452315Oh yeah and sweep being locked behind skip tickets blows ass
Will this turn into orange ticket after the event or will it dissappear after the event is over?
>>1452315if you can call minimal profits but consistent updates solid, then yes we technically are. plenty of story for you to catch up to, and event stories in the archive>>1452616they disappear, use emgreen tickets are always event exclusive
Is there a vmg pacific alliance or a way to see how active an alliance is before you join it? Stuck in an old dead one atm so cant check myself
Think I'm going to make a global character and play on that from now on. Ive got 15 days logged in on this Pacific account that I started with with kaguya and chihaya (I think they're my best characters) would I be shooting myself in the foot or should I just bite the bulletthanks for your time
>>145377by global I mean american
>>1436644started playing because of this on the pacific, almost level 30, any alliance?done with main story (walled at normal 7-10)doing perma events for crystals now, 28 to go and 4 days left, SEND HELP
>>1453771 >>1453845 here, post your friends code, I'll add youI really hope there is a pacific alliance somewhere, but if there isn't, we can play together!
>>1453848Here's my social security number 999288868
>>1454338Sent you the request!
gotemwhat an edgelord
>>1454402Thats so... surreal
>>1454469what do you mean? it looks like gachano idea how to raise or use her though
>>1453127>>1453845there was, once upon a time. haven't heard from any of those anons in a very long time, best of luck to you both
>>1454480thanks a lot! I've already rolled a second 5-star from the green ticket gacha! best of luck to you as well!
>>1454480AG basically doubled their income in march according to the mobile charts across all regions so perhaps the time for artery gear to return from the dead is upon us
Are any of the /vg/ guilds still around?
>>1454973Not to my knowledge. After next Alliance Exercise ends (~3 days, + 1 day of cooldown) I'll make an alliance - someone else already seemed to be interested in it, too.We're playing on Pacific, so if you're there, post a friend code I'll add you!
>>1454973Yes. Even the leader is still active. Surprisingly.
>>1455132on which server? and if pacific, can you make any open slots?
>>1455141American server. I'm not even American
>>1455147>spoilerthat's fucked up, I'm sorry to see thatgood luck to all of you
>>1455148If you are new, change your server. Rule number 1 when playing with vg, always pick NA server no matter where you are from. Don't be like me in Guardian Tales.
>>1455157I'll stay on Pacific because the other person I met is here. He keeps logging in, so I'll trust him. If he wishes to change and it's somehow possible without losing all my progress though, I wouldn't mind.
The event shop is done! Bad news is, I ran out of energy to do this. I still think it was worth it though.Will try doing Target Eliminations tomorrow, I think. No idea how to start.
>>1455263go for Centaur first, most units need the speed gear she dropstry to only farm stage 7 and above since those drop the 6* pieces of gear
>>1455293that's what I gather from looking at the prydwen guides - I don't have Alice though, and the only units I have raised proper are Quinn, 04 and Grace, the rest lag behindI'll see what I can do
>>1455161Found out most of my top tier units are actually not as good as I thought so at this point I'll only change to NA if you do pacific broI don't think my account has any timed special stuff on it considering I logged in for like 12 days total previously
>>1455321I'm not changing in that case. Let's do our best with things we got!
>>1455323がんばれ
>>1455293After further inspection, I found out something. I can farm Centaur for gear, but I probably need Tech 3 Kanna (status infliction would help, but it is what it is) to do it. My team of Quinn/Morris/04/Sonya failed, so I'll be replacing Sonya with Kanna before trying it again. Unfortunately, because I missed blue chips yesterday, I'll need to wait two more days. Because I like not having to wait for lots of time for no reason, I decided to start farming red chips. Somehow, I managed to clear all the way until stage 10 with this setup - Catcher support AG helped. Morris really is ridiculous, looping S3 into S2 back into S3 infinitely with leveled skills. Her skills healed around 4.5k HP, which was 41% of her own MaxHP, but 90% of the rest of the team. Everyone gets this donk for free and she's this good, that's insane.
And this is the result. It's probably overkill, but she carried me in terms of damage so far.
pulled alicewere back
>>1455785congrats man
>>1455786After I cleared out all the 3 stars and most of the 4 stars I had that I thought were useless to get warehouse space so now I'm in the process of recollecting all the ags I retired
>>1455793>retiring low-star things instead of just buying wh space when there's no choice but to do som9...
>>1455794I had a max dupe roko who i just learned is a great earlygame boss killerIt is what it is
>>1455840>rokoJust from scrolling through her kit, she relies on corrosion status to do anything at all. Her S3 is 95% proc and S1 is 35% proc. To make statuses work on bosses, however, you need status infliction gear, which in earlygame you're just not gonna have. So don't worry too much, she needs gear to work in pve.
>>1455848>95%100%*it's still screwed because most bosses have 50% status resist or something
oh wait, I have her>Roko is the PvE god for early game players. The poison mechanic allows you to cheese through Harpist stage 9, darkzones and many more. Roko will be benched a few weeks after release as players are able to gear their units properly, but until then, Roko remains one of the best PvE boss killers. nnnnnneat
>>1455865I decided to go fuck it and invest in a setless bunch of +status infliction gear. Time to level/rank her up for that 3* metafag experience.
A new season of All-out Battle has opened. You can turn in codexes that you get from normal battles in it (same ones that alliance needs, you get loads of them in EX event battles) there, and get 3 energy cans plus some goodies per 10. So naturally, I started to clear the event shop last second!I'm also leveling a bunch of stuff on the side. Did you know that you can star up generic 3* robots using around 16 Event Skip tickets on Hard EX stages star them up to 4*, then use them as star up fodder? I've only found out recently. EXP farming is amazing.
Nep banner.
Nowa banner. Here we go!
first pullwtf
Anyway, event summary. Neptune drops on Nio and they have a drastic fight, then she gets back to Gamindustri! It's a really fun short story. Now for the hard part.Nowa got pulled on the first try, so I made a point of pulling Neptune's banner for pity twice. The reason being was a free random 5* AG ticket at 150 (see here >>1457548 ) and pity pot at 180. Now the hard part. I don't know why, but I think that it's not possible to max all three units (Nepgear, Neptune, Noire) only with what the game gives you. I'm not 100% sure, of course, but this is the feeling the game gives me. Therefore, I'll be prioritizing Neptune first, with Nepgear second.The event this time around does not give event shop currency directly. You earn a little through daily quests and achievements (play stage X times, beat X, etc), but it's not much. Instead, you drop tickets to challenge the boss with. You win the boss fight, you get to roll the gacha for Nepgear's upgrades. ...anyway, I have no clue how to do this boss fight. I rolled the previous difficulty with 04/Quinn/Morris/Suriel (needed a support AG though), but it looks like this one counters you with skills. 20k power required when my team only has 10k. Any help would be appreciated. Now then, please share your feelings about the event!
>>1457708Wrong screenshot. That one was meant to demonstrate that they bungled up Nepgear's description - it describes Purple Heart's kit instead. Guess she borrowed a little bit too much from her sister.Here's the boss. Help help
>doom because only 30 tickets and 10k crystals, not enough to hit pity on even one>get nep in 20 tickets>get nowa in the other 10o-oh...I didn't even drop enough to get their normal form costumes...
>>1457729It seems you're really really lucky!
Another realized downside: I cannot farm second hardest stage of the boss on auto because my units would die without support AG. It appears I'll have to blast the boss around.... 100 times with 4 minutes each attempt over 13 days.mega fug
Pavonis unique armament is here btw
Tfw can only beat boss second difficultyaccount bricked its over
>>1458272its ok, you just need to waste more fuel on it I believe in yousituation on my end: >hit 2 pity on neptune banner, blasted the rest to 210>want to go 270 for 4 pity and maybe more pots (bonbon XXL at 250)>20 more perma events not done; each should take 3-4 fuel boxesso now I'm stuck doing these on event AP and I still need to do chips for nepgear and nowa, go mepretty sure it all works out though, so if it does, then even you should be able to clear the gacha pool if you only do second difficulty
>>1458308(each perma event comes down to ~5 rolls, give or take)
>Nio replaced PatriciaBring her back, who else is going to inspect my quality for me?
Another daily update. I've left my alliance and will be able to make my own tomorrow. If there are no objections, I'll name it "wewlad".Progress on permanent operations is going smoothly. I've found this thingy when I was doing daily annihilation. What can I even do with this? Two gold stats, one of them SPD, but it's 5*, not 6* and the set is not useful. Troublesome.
>>1459276I've finished my Neptune rolls. Hit 3 pity at 270 rolls total. Not one of them scored a Nep on her banner, leaving me with Rank 3 Purple Heart. I will probably be able to obtain more BonBon XXL's later down the line to cover this - which means Nepgear's gacha is next. This means that I will finally be able to 6-star Neptune with her copies too.I estimate that I have 50-ish more rolls in Permanent Operations and around 20 in Main Story (before I get walled by other content). I can get another BonBon from the Charge button if I spend around 70 more rolls, so if I go for another 90 rolls of pity, I can get two more Neptune ranks. I think it's out of my reach now, though. After I finish up Nepgear's gacha, I'll think about blasting the rest of my AP/stash on it. If anyone can offer any advice, please do so.I hope you exited your alliance by now, Pacific bro.
>Dialogue mentions gear wielding a holy sword>Her UE is a holy swordyabe
>>1459740be glad it's not the other oneehuheueh
Pacific Server's alliance is successfully created! It's free to join, so get in. You get to funpost in the ally chat too.
FINALLYRoko with her Corrosion status carried me here. The boss had 70% status resist. It didn't matter. I may have had to use a Rela on 04 to delete the initial swarm of enemies, but after that, defensive AG + Roko damage carried me. Final team was Morris/Nepgear/Roko/04.I had no idea I could beat this!
Here's another daily update! I've managed to complete all the Permanant Event content (don't look at To Glory, it has a troublesome EX-4 stage I don't want to do). It took quite a lot of time to do. This gives me a little under 34 rolls, which with a release of another Permanent Story in 2 days, 3 tickets from login rewards in 2 days + main story progression will push me towards first Black Heart pity, which will give me a final BonBon. That'll be it for this event in terms of rolls.I've tried very hard to make Extra stage NewThx consistent yesterday. I've only found out that the best team around for it is Morris/Nepgear/Black Heart/04, as ailment procs on the boss with 70% resist are inconsistent at best. I'll have to do this boss today too for 150 event currency, what a pain.After this mess, I'll finish up Nepgear's gacha and try to progress in Main Story as much as I can. So how is your progression? Are you doing well?
Recently got a 6* shield that basically doubled my siris' critical damage so I'm doing alright. Taking a break from farming centaur to get some thunder upgrade mats
so with this, we'll be two AGs away from CN serveri didn't even know white sakabula existedhttps://twitter.com/ArterygearEN/status/1785897001508639159
Today, I've done it. Rolled the last 40 pulls on Noire's banner. Got TWO (2) Black Heart ranks, plus the one from pity, plus the last BonBon from the charge track. Amazed at such a display of love from the game, I promptly decided to rank Black Heart up further - she did, after all, have straight +ATK rankup bonuses. The final result is Neptune at Rank 3 (rolls spent: 270) and Noire at Rank 4 (rolls spent: 90). Noire LOVEToday I've started work on max level Alice - the wiki says she's bread and butter for so-called cleave setups, which forego speed and health for the sake of more damage in terms of gear. Given that I have no gear to speak of at this time, I think it's a worthwhile investment. Here's hoping this pays off.Special shoutout to alliance fren who generously donated three 3* skill level chips. I've leveled Roko's S3 up to the ailment boost with your help, man. Much appreciated.>>1462796Nice one, congrats!
>>1462858>running Factor Nio banner againOh shit, looks like I will be unbricking my account
>>1463113I have a ton of intermediate skill chips if you want to switch to those, dont know if you can refresh the same item request
>>1365779this is base
Finished off Nepgear's gacha today. With 5 days to spare, too. Good going. I think that it's time for me to start doing Centaur Eliminations + Main Story soon. There's also Distant Trial to think of - no clue how to start there.With Nep event coming to a close, there's a few things that need to be decided. First off, I'm gonna have (90x5 days) 450 more SEPlaneptune game disks, bringing the count to 810. I have no idea what to spend all this on, but I'm leaning towards fodders and EXP. There are a lot of things to level, after all.Second, according to the schedule (source: none), F. Nio banner will be rerun soon. Normally I wouldn't care about anything other than a bunch of neppers, but it's a Nio (main girl) and she has a self-revive and an SSS PvE rating. Naturally, after spending 360 free rolls, I don't have anything except whatever's left of the main story to go around. We'll see how that works out.Third, while rolling for all the other mess, I pulled Sirius and Oona. Their kits seem neat, but I haven't raised them at all - and what's more, they (kind of) conflict with Black Heart's niche in my roster, which is Green (green-ish?) single-target DPS. Coupled with CR Suriel (level 50 and tech 3 now!) being sorta useful, I'm not actually sure what unit to spend my 5* skill keys on (20 rn). I can bring those two up to speed no problem with the massive amount of EXP from Neptune's shop, but how useful are they? I don't know. If anyone has any experience with them, sound off.I also got Ginga, but even if the tierlist says she's SSS-tier in PvE at first, after Purple Heart, who looks to be doing the same job, raising her seems kind of strange. Would Ginga + Purple Heart + Morris + Alice be an effective Centaur farming team? My guess is no because only Alice S3 offers a persistent debuff and I have no gear to compensate. Decisions...>>1463547I have 82 of those things and around nine useful 4-stars to raise at MOST. There is seriously no need.
>>1463781>only Alice S3 offers a persistent debuffJust checked and Centaur is SPD down immune. I can either slot in Foxy or fit in Nepgear's S3 magic. Just need +100% ailment boost from gear for both her and neptune somehow fffff
Another daily post. I've started to make progress into Centaur elimination research. My first Centaur 8 auto seems to be really janky right now and takes a lot of time, but still works fine - you may observe it in this here webbum. I bought a Gavialis Cat Orb and put it on Neptune - it works wonders right now. This is where I'll put most of my sanity from now on until I get a decent set of gear. I've managed to complete the event 9-square that was expiring on 9th May by spamming elims too, so go me.And that's it for today, pretty much. Because the elims take so long to do, I have about 25 leftover energy cans after all the dailys and elims. In fact, they're still running in the other tab. The goal of all this is, I wanna get some decent gear, then make a Centaur 9 auto somehow, then level it all up and blow up the main story for F Nio rolls.I've almost forgot to mention, but I leveled Nepgear's Unique Armament to level 20. At 20, she gets a passive that reduces her S2 and S3 cooldowns by 1 if no allies have debuffs on them. That seemed pretty broken to me, so as a result now I'm a little bit poor. Maybe. It'll fix itself with time, probably.
>>1464331>sanityExcuse me, energy.
It took me around 4 hours, but I've cleared this week's rewards from Distant Trial. This boss had 70% deflect on atk while debuffed + bonus turn riposte + every attack was aoe healblock+spd/atk down on one target. This boss took a lot of time and without CR Suriel, I would not have made it.Excuse me while I fall unconscious
Today was not a very busy day, but there was a lot of planning involved. With the downtime at hand (and my massive supply of 4* skillup keys), I recognized that I should raise a bunch of useful 4* AG's. Thus, today I brought Maika and Corax to level 50 (6 stars + tech level 5, all chip stages are open on sunday) using the event currency - for EXP cat orbs and starup fodders respectively.Maika is a Tank, who is oriented on giving all allies action bar boosts. When she gets hit, her allies get sped up, and when her ally gets hit, that ally gets sped up. To be honest, raising her seems pretty overkill with Morris and Nepgear, but I'm sure the game will throw a lot of tanky, desperate looking fights my way. Her information can be found here - https://www.prydwen.gg/artery-gear/characters/maikaMeanwhile, Corax is a DPS unit, who seems to focus on speed. She can grant herself speed buffs and Stealth, in addition being able to 100% stun targets with her S3. One thing to add though, is that all bosses are stun immune, so it doesn't look that helpful. Her information can be found here - https://www.prydwen.gg/artery-gear/characters/coraxI've also decided to completely invest in CR Suriel that was rolled earlier. The reasoning behind that is that I need a solid red DPS unit, which I can farm SPD/ATK/crit gear for and that has utility. My second pick for that was raising Rosemary - she technically does a lot more damage, but an ability to grant partywide debuff immunity and no-sell death once every so often is just too fancy to not take. After maxing Quinn's S2/S3 and CR Suriel's S1/S3, my 5* skill chips count rests at 0. The rest of the chips go into Sirius development fund and towards Unique Armament leveling. Sirius and Angelica are due to be raised next, former because meta (I bet she facerolls even without skill chips) and latter because I want a green SPD/atk/statusacc set user that's not Roko. Used up almost all of my purple chips!And this is mostly it for now.
