《Arknights》I will not stop until I pull Ascalon!!

[@Mccs-ei3in]

Using 125 pulls right before the release of the 2 strongest characters in the game is crazy

[@robosuper1198]

he still has over 500 pulls left

[@XxMvpKostxX]

Youre so brave bro knowing what to come.. I bow to your greatness

[@ikyiAlter]

Gacha Addiction + Waifu Addiction >__> In process of M9ing Ascalon. xD

[@homina.homina]

Thanks for fueling my addiction in my place❤❤

[@ikyiAlter]

xD Glad I helped

[@sora4852]

lol ur account is so good I’m glad for you (NOT ME MISSING 25 6* EVEN THO I PLAY SINCE LAUNCH)

[@ikyiAlter]

Well, I'm not a whale but definitely not F2P. I buy the monthly pass, monthly headhunting, and a couple of the anniversary packs now and then. While I like to be "cheap", I follow the principle I should support what I like.

[@Asaki9013]

​@@ikyiAlter thank you for supporting Arknights, I also spend some myself from time to time

[@Charlett]

Wow thats a nice pulling session Ngl with ur orundum and OP u will get wisa and Logos easily But either way I hope that ur luck remains as good as it is rn for the 5th anni

[@ikyiAlter]

I was originally saving for a long time to try to max pot Wis'adel but I got sidetracked and spent it here and there. Cant stop the gacha addiction. xD

[@Charlett]

@@ikyiAlter U will get to like 600+ pulls So imo still very very possible U need to drop only 5 Wisadels if u dont spark since at 300 pulls one is guarantee

[@Taishi7472]

If i lose 50/50, i hope get what u get like alter or flame

[@SRFBeta5]

Logos will be waiting for you if you pull for Wisadel.

[@Yammatti]

You got 2 cats at once Lucky

[@devilgash2205]

This is me in degenbrescher banner hahahaha, but I wasn't able to go for 150

[@ikyiAlter]

I think there's a joint banner with Degen with Ascalon. Good luck to you then!

[@bloodred255]

bro gets 3 new six stars in 95 pulls and has the nerve to complain about his rates.

[@nicksugoi9366]

That's the whale for you

[@conqueror_the_based]

Bro took “skip Walter” to the next level 💀 P.S. Congrats on getting Ascalon tho

[@ikyiAlter]

Thanks! I've been saving for a long long time with the goal of trying to max pot Wis'adel. Clearly, my gacha addiction got the better of me. I won't get max pot, but I do have enough for at least 1 Wis'adel. ^___^ Good luck on your pulls.

[@conqueror_the_based]

@@ikyiAlter I’m sure you’ll get pot 5 Wis’adel 😏. (And maybe a few Logos pots?)

[@mateusschramm]

i'm a new player, i'm farming Orundum every week and just got 12k in 1 month, how can i get that much? i got lucky and got thorns blaze, lappland and skadi (my gf calls my team Guardnights because the other roles are just trash) and i want Wisadel or some great sniper so hard, i use 3* kross and recently i got meteor, my only caster is amiya e2 lvl 50 and steward but get pulls and lmd feels so hard

[@ikyiAlter]

I suggest joining a server and going to their "ask help" channel to ask for tips and whatnot. My go to one is Kyo's. He's very famous for making Arknights guides. The peeps there are friendly. To answer your questions and to point out a few things. 1. The 3 star Kroos is generally said to be the "best" E1 sniper between all 3 stars and 4 stars. So, Meteor has her niche uses or certain stages you want the def shred, but usually Kroos is "sufficient". Kyo usually make low end squads with mostly 3 stars and 1-2 6 stars. The Marksman subclass for Snipers are kind of "dead" because of their low attack and later enemies have higher and higher defense. You'll need up needing quite a few buffers to help. I believe the "best" Sniper is Wis'adel, then Typhon, then Pozy, then Exusiai and the rest of the good ones are either a slightly worse version of the previous, a little niche or limited (e.g. Schwarz, Ch'en Alter, Rosa, Fiammetta). 2. It's funny because the "best" class is technically "guard". And there are a few operators from other classes you can argue for "guards" too (e.g. Penance from Defender, Horn from Defender). There was a huge talk about guardification of Arknights operator classes. 3. I am not a free to play player and I've been playing a bit over 2 years. I buy the monthly pass for orundum and the monthly headhunting permit. I also never trade in gold/yellow certificates for operators and trade them for headhunting permits. You want to save up to 258 or 260 gold certificates before you start trading them in because it starts from 1 permit to 10x permits at the end. And it refreshes monthly, so you only want to do it all at once. Of all the packs or top ups, the best value ones, from best to worst, are the monthly pass, all the "first time packs except the originite prime ones", the anniversary or collab packs and then lastly, monthly headhunting packs. The basic top up packs (originite prime ones) are usually not worth it. If you have the first time bonus, then it's better but still. That's basically why and how I saved up so much. But if you're free to play, I suggest picking a 4 star operator to E2, maybe like Myrtle and just follow Kyo guides for a while by borrowing help. Due to the way Arknights gacha rate works, I highly advise against pulling on anything but limited/anniversary banners or the "joint banners". I lost 50/50 5 whole times in this video. That's how bad it is. And when you lose a 50/50, you gamble between 70+ operators. I've had a few times where I pulled on a new operator banner and then a month or two later, I was pulling on the anniversary one and I got a dupe of the new operator I got before. If you look at my Chongyue or Eyja Alter banner, I had to pull to 200+ near 300 for them. That's how bad it was. And with 300 pulls, I'm going to randomly pull on a few of those 70+ operators and if you're lucky, you'll get one you want, or not. The joint banners limit you to 3-4 operators, so if they're good and you don't have them, go for it. Likewise, if you're new, chasing for the operators in the gold certificate shop might be a good idea. NFZen does prediction videos on what's the next shoperator. You can youtube him. Lastly, if you have hobby money, don't feel bad about "wasting" it on a gacha game. Just look at how many hours you spend vs a $60 Switch game. Heck, let's say you only get games at 50% off. Okay, so it's a $30 game but how many hours can you play from it. Main story is 10 hours? with up to 60 hours of additional stuff? How many hours did you spend in Arknights in a month? Just spend responsibly and think of it as "supporting the game" instead of "gachaing/gambling".

[@mateusschramm]

@@ikyiAlter thx very much for you complete answer, i appreciate that

[@Taishi7472]

Bruh u really like me as new player

[@ninja6245-real]

@@mateusschrammYou want to know something? On the Shu banner. I LEGIT GOT ZUO LE ON THE FIRST PULL! THAT IS NOT A JOKE! When I saw him I was like. “Whelp. THERE GOES ALL MY LUCK!” I got Ascalon on pull 13.

[@ikyiAlter]

That's very lucky

[@igorot7481]

Bro might i suggest making your Fonts bigger. Its a bit hard to read if someone is watching from their phone like me 😂

[@ikyiAlter]

Alrighty, xD I'll make them bigger.

[@ikyiAlter]

Actually, I believe that due to the scaling of the video, it'll just look ridiculously big for desktop viewers. I'll copy a version of the subtitles to CC so you can others can just turn that on and that should scale nicely for mobile users. Well, for later videos, lazy for this one. xD

[@r-gw2do]

you got jessicalter, big win imo, BUILD HER NOW! (please)

[@ikyiAlter]

Hmmmmm, I'll see later. I like my Defenderknights but I'm building Ascalon and I think I need to save for Wis'adel and Logos after... X___X so much to build.

[@ninja6245-real]

@@ikyiAlterJessicalter module reveals hidden enemies and improves the shield duration… VERY MUCH WORTH IT!

[@ikyiAlter]

@@ninja6245-real I'll do material inventory check. Gotta do Wis'adel and Logos xD

[@eudolf5601]

bro is literally so lucky but not

[@ikyiAlter]

T____T

[@justadi2878]

you'won, but at what cost?

[@ikyiAlter]

My sanity. xD

[@Nanashi74yan]

oof, this is quite painful to watch

[@bnau374]

The game is obviosly punishing you for using Japanese va

[@ikyiAlter]

I actually use a mix between English, Japanese and Cantonese for Ch'en, Hoshiguma, etc. This is one aspect I love about Arknights, I can pick and choose what language I want for each specific operator/character. ^___^
