Aak also can work as an sp batery for her, every hit of his s2 or s3 can activate the second talent of Lin

[@hexerin]

Also, since her DEF/RES is taken into account before hitting the barrier, literally none of his 15 shots will deal damage to her (nor pop her barrier, ofc). Aak's S3 would be better for this purpose, as it has a shorter cycle (50 seconds, vs her S2's 55 seconds).

[@ea8702]

Finally, I have a reason to build aak

[@eeveekyu4446]

as someone who's had AAK for a super long time and never built him and just got Lin thank you for this

While it's good to not powercreep after every unit, if it wasn't for lin's module coming in 3 months, she would be an easy skip tier unit, a side grade of one of the worst 6 stars of the game.

[@refialrial523]

As i've got Lin from free daily pull, even though i was planning to skip for yato. I'm here praying for you & those who read this to get operator you wish from free daily pull and got 800 Orundum form daily ticket pull d(`･∀･)b

[@osaidf]

​@@refialrial523I got Chongyue on yesterday's free pull and Lin on today's free pull. Probably my luckiest banner pulls ever.

[@HyperionNemesis96]

Her S3 is fucking great in crowd control, plus her module is insane to just bait enemies to charge her skill even faster to nuke things

[@lordent]

Yes, but you can use Eya s3 🤔

[@thewinterprince1731]

My favorite thing about Lin is that I can turn her first skill on and make her work normally. The fact that phalanx casters can't attack without using their skill makes them almost entirely useless to me.

[@lordent]

You can use s1 🤷

[@sampofools]

personally lin has been a lifesaver for me 😭 her aoe rly helped me beat that absolute hoard of enemies in ls-4 and s3-5

[@agatebeowulf643]

I got her first before i got the cool dragon aniki, and I treat operators like that with care and respect. Am already done E2'ing the Rat wife and am now farming for her skill mastery mats

[@michaelblueknight1268]

0:35 a number of titles that put the Mother of Dragons at shame.

[@eveakane6563]

TLDR Rrat is a good defensive Caster and will greatly benefit from her mod a few months from now. Good luck pulling her because I'm saving up for Yato and Noir.

[@Kaizo_Sa]

How much do you have right now? Asking cuz I want a rough estimate about how much should I have right now lol. I pulled on reed and am gonna pull this one too

[@eveakane6563]

Last I checked I'm near 70k Orundum, not counting the tickets I'm about to buy from yellow certs.

[@nonamenoname9550]

Same here, probably will get Lin from shop next year.

[@justyourusualDoktah]

same, im also saving for Yato but i ended up getting Lin from free pulls.

[@eveakane6563]

So I checked properly this time, and my Orumdums are actually at 87,505, with 17,640 worth in Originium Prime, and I'm still going to buy the tickets, which is 38 pulls worth.

[@sanguinis7717]

Kept getting lin for four times now, man she doesn't even leave me alone while i was trying to get chongyue. 😅

Yea same for me.... I really said her go to your dad and let me get chongyue really

As i said on the chongyue video. The answer is probably yes, but in the end its no because the big brain of HG decide to not following like CN did and putting another limiterer character after this banner.

yo, from what I've noticed you haven't made any videos on Record Restoration Operators, I was looking on what you thought of Bison and I haven't seen a video on him, could you make one? for me he's the Cuora but better Defender and is now the main Defender in my Squads, especially for F2P Players

[@legs1465]

I don't have carnelian and im interested in the phalanx caster branch so getting her and chongus in less than 50 pulls is a win

[@The-Man-of-Pepsi]

I'm a new player, and after getting 6 firewhistles and two swire, i got a copy of her. This video was pretty helpful because looking at her gimmicks left me with no idea what she was used for.

[@tranduyhung3442]

if you dont have any 6* AOE caster, you can use Lin S1 instead, she much cheaper to deploy than a normal AOE caster, plus S1 have true AOE and slow

Will you reviewed firewisthle ? cause her skill and design is amazing

[@luca5cuyi]

I wasn't sure until I read the pros and saw the spin in S3

[@arvandor6820]

I love FrostByte's videos... but if I had one complaint, it's that he says "definitely yes" for S tier ops, "probably yes" for A-FF tier ops, and then I don't even remember what he says for the truly awful ops. There are so many videos where he says "probably yes" then when he's going through the pros and cons I'm like "Wait... really? Shouldn't this be more like a ... maybe if you like them or lack X?"

[@Yuri_2102]

I only want lin and got her on soft pity and i don't want chungus at all.

[@NAi2004]

I max pot Lin so I’m definitely going to raise her when her module exists because her talent buffs are kinda UHHHH stupidly strong when paired with her module

I feel this is more a case of should you build instead of should you get for most of us

Although she is decent, I’m holding off on M3ing her S3 until her module is about to release which would make her a lot better.

[@nicktanicosilva2582]

Man she's an amazing Assassin especail how she can sneak while having that cake on her

[@whitemagus2000]

I found her today in my dormitory. I literally have no idea when I got her.

[@dindapriska]

When the damage overcomes her shield value, does it have visual animation of breaking? Because I found it strange the shield doesn't break when she got bombarded by missiles (the one without module). Actually, how does the shield work exactly the moment the damage exceeded the value? I assumed it would null the first instance of high damage first before breaking, but is it actually "the damage ignores the shield and immediately reduces her HP"?

[@sherlockoberon_akomi9781]

The big orb shield you see is not the shield from her talent. It's the default shield that Phalanx casters have and they disappear when they're using their skills, indicating the bonus def and res from trait is off. The two small crystals that spins around Lin are the one that visualize for the shield from her talent. Basically, those are her "shield". For the second question, i can only answer from my own experience, so take it with a grain of salt. If the damage exceeds the shield damage threshold, then the damage completely ignores and break the shield and actually damage Lin. I tried to test if Lin can survive the cannon from CH10 with her shield, hoping to see if her shield can nullify the full damage before breaking. But apparently in my experience, the cannon completely killed her.

[@dindapriska]

@@sherlockoberon_akomi9781 Oh, I didn't notice the crystal orbs lmao. I always thought the big orb is the shield Also shame. I was hoping it would ping off a full damage first before breaking.

[@sherlockoberon_akomi9781]

@@dindapriska yeah. It's sad. It would make her S2 more usable if that were the case. It would be like if Roberta give a free 1 mudrock shield to all allies in range with just a single click lmao.

[@arudoshirogane4774]

Tbh for veteran this limited banner really is skippable. But no way in hell I'm skipping Chong"兄"yue. So glad he's coming home rather than Lin in sixty pull.

[@GhemaDiva]

As veteran who play since beginning, Im not skipping it

[@ian59]

As a 3 year veteran, the only banners I don't skip are limited ones. Every other operator I can eventually get with yellow certificates. The only ones I actually need to gacha for are limiteds. If you're implying that it's because of power/performance levels, my bench is so stacked that I will never need to gacha for power again.

[@Mizufluffy]

I personally think veterans might be more interested in operators that they like for one reason or another. My main priority on the banner was Lin but I got Chongyue first and Lin after. Phalanx casters are interesting, and I think Lin's talents and skills makes her quite unique, and I'm looking forward to her module. Other operators who I'm currently interested in include Yato alter, Ines, Muelsyse and Typhon.

[@hehe02192]

Nice timing! I just got 2 Chongyue and 1 Lin with 100 pulls but I really don't understand her archetype.
