It seems non AK players asked about how the religion works in AK. It's the same as the real world with the church and templar knights. But instead of swords and holy waters, church people in AK fight with guns and holy bullets. Oh, and a remote controlled orbital strike too.

[@synckar6380]

It gets even better. Every single gun works solely on the magic system in Terra, making every skilled marksmen a mage. Since race also effects inherit skill, the angelic race Sankta cultivated an entire gun culture as renowned marksmen by themselves.

[@astupidlylongnamethatstoolong]

@@synckar6380 To add on to that, guns were a relatively recent creation for them as well, they went through the entirety of gun advancements very quickly

I remember this banger song from this event. Basically in Arknights, the Laterano (fictional Vatican) is composed of Angels who likes sweets and trigger happy with guns and explosives. The Pope pulling out a .357 magnum with dubstep choir bgm is probably gonna be a core memory.

To anyone who didn't know AK lore. Laterano is basically Vatican, they have bird people, it's a very holy places, we also have angles and they LOVE guns, they LOVE guns so much it's mandatory for them to have one, and if you're to young to have one you can have a bow or a crossbow.

*_ーFOR YOUR INFORMATIONー_* _Please tap Read more for details._ *_殉道之人 / The Martyr_* is an _Arknights_ song acting as the Boss battle BGM of the _Guide Ahead_ event. *Release date:* _22nd February, 2023_ *Soundtrack:* _Guide Ahead OST_ *Genre:* _Dubstep Organ_ *Composer:* _Erik Castro_ This song is played in stage GA-8 & GA-EX-8. The event is originally named Guiding Ahead, but the Global server changes "Guiding" to "Guide" for unknown reasons. The original name can still be seen in GA's promotional images and Path to Glory medal set.

I've been watching your Arknights video for quite some time now (thanks to my friend sending all of them on discord lol) and I was just wondering HOW ARE YOU THAT GOOD? I mean, it's not like you practiced the song before right? It's just on stream, a request, and usually your first time listening to the song? So how do you do ?! Are you godly good at this or just I'm wrong and you listenned to the song before

[@halowars400762]

I hear it's because alot of songs follow similar patterns with notes etc he basically has so much experience at this point he can guess to how the song will sound somewhat. You can actually see him stop when the songs is more unusual like the "I'm a spider so what?!" ending I don't know the proper terminology to explain but that's what I remember from someone else a few months ago.

[@freilldk5674]

FYI Guns in AK is far less superior in terms of explosive, means that our gunpowder is stronger But well, they got Art/Magic shit so this info kinda doesnt count

[@Hindshell5438]

Not only that, based on R6s collab. Terran are far stronger than normal people from earth. Which make sword and heavy weapon more effective. And some people could carry a very heavy shield that wouldn't be possible if they were people of earth. Tho correction. Based on tachanka file. Terra does not have the material required to make gunpowder or atleast a gunpowder that works well. Since again, terra is not earth, may look very similiar but not.

For people new to Arknights OSTs in all their glory, I would take a look at the Contingency Contract themes which are all on Spotify and KZbin. They have no business going as hard as they do, especially Pyrite. I don't know if any would really work when covered though, since some of them are pretty vibin' rather than outright hype and some have percussion baked in. Signore de Lupi from the Il Siracusino update also goes really really hard but it def has heavy drumming already I'd also recommend the DJ Okawari + Arknights songs (Everything's Alright, Speed of Light and Your Star). Speed of Light is easily my favourite song of all time
