Mind mentioning which parts had lacking translations?

Instead of focusing on relatives that divide us, we should find the absolutes that tie us.

Here's the thread. I can't read Chinese, so I can't fact-check this, but it is true that the story in Code of Brawl was rather difficult to follow. I'm sure part of that was by design, but I don't think the translation helped, either.

It's been fun.

So question, are the animal features part of the infection or that's just how people look?

That's just how people look. It's implied that there may still be regular humans out there, somewhere, but everyone is some manner of animal person.

It's been fun.

I cleared out the Contingency Contract shop in terms of all the limited stock items last night.

dunno if it's worth bothering with any of the unlimited items

It depends entirely on how much you value the time/effort it takes you to clear the daily CC maps. It costs no sanity, so in terms of game-efficiency they are infinitely efficient, free mats for nothing, basically.

[up][up] Generally the RMA is considered a must buy because it is annoying to farm and cannot be crafted. According to most calculations tho, the polyester is slightly more sanity efficient but only by 0.01, but the polyester can be crafted. You can buy a balance of both for mid term or long term. Imo, could also just buy mats that you need right now regardless of sanity efficiency.

Nian is limited, everyone else is permanent.

Interesting, whelp, gonna save up now.

BTW, I've been reading the story again from the beginning and there's one thing that confused me.

In Operation 1-12, did we actually see how Ace died? Or was his death just implied? We know he lost an arm from fighting Talulah, but in his last scene, he seemed to be treating a fellow injured Rhodes Island member. Afterwards, Ace plans to "go back" (this seemed vague, was he going back to fight Talulah again?) The next scene shows Amiya crying and asking why she had to see this kind of suffering. Then the next scene immediately jumped to Amiya getting lost in thought as Rhodes Island finally managed to exit the city.

I do think that the translation is weakest when the game has to imply something like that. I do empathize - especially if the translation team isn't given the whole script and/or isn't told what's going on storywise. But it does make it hard.

It's been fun.

If Nian is coming this July, then I better save up all the rolls I need since I used up all of them when I try rolling for Chen but got Silverash instead (Worth it!).

Once I finally get Nian (hopefully) I gonna save up all my rolls when a certain special Sniper is coming on the English servers.

Now to elite 2 Amiya to prepare her when Chapter 7 arrives....

Nian's 2nd skill gives her an extra block just like Cuora but it also causes any enemies who attack her receiving backlash Arts damage calculated after Nian's ATK and become silenced for up to 9 seconds.

Nian's 3rd skill gives her and all of her allies around extra defenses and an extra block. Not only does this skill affects a large area but gives all of her allies an extra block especially Defenders, meaning they now can block up to 4 enemies with Cuora now able to block 5!

Does that mean Cuora can do that Dog Pile of Doom thing where a ton of mooks get thrown away after activating a powerup?

I decided to E2 Saria. And oh boy did she drain my LMD. I got her to 80 and im now farming the money.

I keep forgetting that my Saria is not E2, and that may be why she's actually relatively squishy still.

Last risk 8 for CC cleared. 6 ops squad isn't so bad when you have Guardknights. Tho today's risks are not so bad since nothing buffs enemy attack.
