Arknights

Isn't it explained in Obsidian Festival the concept of "cities" and "nations"? The mobile cities can get anywhere whenever the need raises because of the Catastrophe so traditional concept of territory doesn't work, but each city is affiliated with a nation that creates their "border". In this case, Chernobog and Lungmen just happen to get parked nearby. If you see the Annihilation map, you see that the nation like Ursus has certain jurisdictions where the mobile cities affiliated with the nation can go, while Lungmen only has its immediate outskirts and the distance between Chernobog and Lungmen aren't that big.

Most of other nations are in the backlog mostly because the story is still dealing with Chernobog-Lungmen, but Chapter 6 should start mentioning other countries like Lungmen's suzerain Yen.

Ah, I forgot that the cities are mobile cities... Thanks everyone for the clarifications, as well as the Chernobog and Lungmen lore stuff.

I guess I might need to rewatch some side story events as well (cause TBH, I skipped a lot of lore in favor of grinding out first, just getting more into this game's story recently). Are there even any Youtubers or content creators dedicated to compiling side story cutscenes for everyone else to see?

I'm not sure myself. I know you can find the story cutscenes on Youtube, at least, though maybe at the end of a clear video or something. A lore notebook would NOT go amiss in a game as vague and hinty as this one...

It's been fun.

Apparently they will eventually add an event viewer in a future patch.

No Blaze for me. Deciding if i roll again when i get the resources or save.

Ok, Blaze's introduction has sold me, I don't care if Ch'en is the better guard, I have far more affinity for her than the dragon.

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

Got Skyfire, Greythroat, and Ambriel for the first time so I can't be too mad at not getting Blaze.

Not gonna do another ten-roll because Aak

First roll on the new banner got me Greythroat. ~30 more rolls chasing either Blaze or Skyfire got me a bunch of 3 and 4 stars (at least many of them are new). My last roll got me Pramanix. I mean, I wanted her coz Hayamin and was thinking of buying her from the certificate store...but rate-up is a lie.

Finally finished Chapter 5, although I was panicking when the last stage had turrets almost everywhere.

I also got GreyThroat... But is she still worth the investment if I already have Exusiai and Blue Poison?

Is Blazw limited?

No. She goes into the general pool.

I gave in to temptation and bought the 2x 10-roll ticket starter pack.

First 10 roll got me a bunch of 3 stars and dup 4 stars. I was pretty annoyed but the second got me Blaze, Mayer and a 2nd Greythroat. I guess maybe the pity rate kicked in? But anyways, I gotta be more careful about these things. I can't spend money on AK and FGO at the same time.

Blaze's got a nice voice, although her line are so long.

Then i can get spook then. That or buy her.

Got to the chapter 6 halfway point. Rest in peace Faust. I find it funny that the ops from Not!China are called "censors". And this third choice from this scene . Rhodes Island is supposed to be a pharmaceutical company right?

Bullets and swords and arrows are kinda like drugs....people aren't gonna be sick anymore after a few doses.

Lol

Anyway, just finished 6-3. Will play more through the story later when I have time

Also just noticed the new player. Nice. I'm Billy#3769 on the game if you want to add me Nightwyrm

Just an eagle. (Feel free to PM me if you want to talk to me).

Chapter 6 end spoilers: honestly I kind of feel like we're nearing the end of the Reunion arc entirely. Like, most of their leadership is either dead or traumatized now, and they're already introducing a new set of named villains.

Definitely been feeling that. I think chapter 8 vs Talulah is likely the end and begins either the vs Ursus or vs Kazdel arc.

Anyway, finished it too. Damn that was sad. Ch'en seems to really like her stepsister. I am really hoping for that possessed Talulah theory and that Ch'en's sword can save her.

EDIT: Wanted to add. The reveal during the confrontation with Crownslayer. Misha arc truly is the biggest OOF. No one won. Full on tragedy.

Finally brought Skyfire and Astesia to E2, now I'm going to shift my focus on leveling all of my E1s before promoting someone again.

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

...got Mostima instead of Blaze in first 10 rolls (kinda expected a 6* since I should already trigger pity), with Ambriel and Skyfire. 20 more rolls...2 more Skyfires. Ackpth. Should have stopped early I suppose. Orun down to like 5.5k before month reset kicks in.

Honestly though on story continuation, when will they properly introduce Abyss? So many crumbs, but no full bread yet.

Give me cute or give me...something?

Question; would people prefer Silverash or Ifrit or Saria up as support units?

I think a lot call SA as the top Game-Breaker? So my vote goes to him.

BTW, this "Untitled World" music video is the first time I've heard of ReoNa. At first, I thought the singer was Aimer!

@onyhow I think it is still too early. Reunion arc seems to be ending by chapter 8 but I think either Ursus or Kazdel will be next so not yet for the Abyss.

@Nouct maybe Silver Ash and Saria for the two 6 star slots.

Server down for anyone else? I just leveled up too, damn it. All those wasted sanity.

I think i have a support who has E2 Silverash but doesn't put his third skill.

Alright, then I'll put up SilverAsh and Saria as support then.

Both of their skills are at lv. 7, it'll take a while before I get all of Saria's skills to M3.
