Mind you bra size conversion is a thing headaches are made of...

I wish we'd just have the "Useless Lesbian" tag already so I can binge read these adorable dorks.

...but wouldn't that apply to at least 80% of content on this site, thus making it less than useful as an identifier?

If anything what needs a tag is the opposite ("Useful Lesbians"? idk man) due to its sheer rarity...

I'll give you Gummy's S2 is definitely trickier to use properly, though that +50-80% Def during the first phase

I tried to find some confirmation whatever her Def buff lasts for entire duration of skill or just first part, but I couldn't find it, so it's good to finally know for sure. It did make sense it'd only last for first 10 second, but I wasn't entirely sure.

Well idk either, that's just my interpretation of how it's worded. But IIRC any currently active buffs show in an operator's stats in-stage so should be easy enough to check?

Her stats just don't hold up to Nearl.

Not really sure 60-70 Atk & Def diff is that big of a deal... esp. when Gummy comes with a nontrivial chance of critting for 150-200% demeji AND stunning the target. Also ~200 more HP for what it's worth but that seems sorta trivial.

The reason why Nearl is better is cause she can replace Saria in high risk CC runs while Gummy just isn't enough. Also they're both healing defenders so the important thing here who's better at being a healer...

I'll give you Gummy's S2 is definitely trickier to use properly, though that +50-80% Def during the first phase is nothing to scoff at (the buff is p much on par with eg. Cuora and Liskarms S1, though not the duration). I'd say their S1s are largely on par though given their slightly different details - given time Gummy will unconditionally heal anyone within range to full health while Nearl will sit there grooming her tail and giving no fucks about anyone over 50%. One is more general maintenance, the other more emergency personnel.

Nearl is ultimately the better healer, sure, given her talent and more convenient S2, but then she'd damn well better be because her kit's much more narrowly specialised. Gummy is more versatile and ofc Hell of a lot easier to get (and max out) in the first place.

Oh. It was actually the word only that confused me, because it was implying that compare to other 4* who get mostly stats, Shirayuki only gets her talent and range upgrade.

That would be a completely nonsensical solitary aberration in the fundamental mechanics and I'm frankly perplexed you even assumed anything like the sort.

Nawww, Nearl is literally an upgraded version of Gummy.

Not really, there's small but meaningful differences in their S1s. Plus lil' bearcub is de facto better at killing stuff due to her frying-pan talent (lol) so there's that.

Ofc if you can get Nearl in the first place (Gummy is dime a dozen from Recruitement) you'll want both, plus any other heal-Defenders you can find, for those Medic-ban Contingency Contracts anyway...

Wait. Yuki gets no stats increase at all on E2? Did I understand that right?

See the word "just", as in "only". Elite promotions increase the functional level cap and stats come from levels, so...

Wait, why is that? Are there some differences between EN and CN versions?

Nah just playerbases and their memes. ┐(ツ)┌

Most 4* E2s are just small stats increase. Shirayuki is a great example,

Uh. Uh. Just sayin' but 'Yuki is an exceptionally bad example because she only gets her talent (trading ASPD for moar damage) and final range upgrade at E2... Most OTHER 4*s just get the usual(ly) minor talent upgrade and universal statcap raise tho.

And often usual for men, especially upper class men. Well, maybe robes instead of skirts? Anyway, trousers are for barbarians.

"Panty flash or go home"
- the Samnites, probably

...mind you both the Romans and the Chinese ended up adopting dirty barbarian trousers at least in the military because the stupid sexy things were just too practical compared to bedsheets, especially if you wanted to get serious about cavalry :P

Alright, let's both be then.

I can work with that o3o

The Eurasian horse nomads had pants as default garb for both sexes because fuck riding in a skirt, but among more sedentary peoples some manner of skirt was usual for women for practical reasons (notably relieving yourself).

You dare assume I didn't know those? I AM THE RESIDENT HISTORY ENTHUSIAST IN THIS SITE

Screw you I was here first =3=

I can just imagine Airi glued to her screen, hypnotized, probably drooling a little... ( ಠ ͜ʖಠ)

The two comments above me reminded me of how I thought of the clothes of the peoples in the northern regions of eastern Heshul in the Story of Zadura and Odlega as season-locked, rather than gender-locked (long-sleeved thick shirts and thick long pants in winter, thin shirt-sleeved shirts and skirts reaching just above the knees in summer).

That's, uh, kinda normal at high latitudes you know. The winter cold kills without some serious bundling up, which sort of wear conversely nets you a heatstroke in the summer heat.

Though usually trousers were then worn year round since they're pretty practical, just lighter patterns in the warm seasons. The Eurasian horse nomads had pants as default garb for both sexes because fuck riding in a skirt, but among more sedentary peoples some manner of skirt was usual for women for practical reasons (notably relieving yourself).

How would a girl crossdress anyway? There isn't really a lot of "masculine-gender-locked" clothing anymore.

Well if she's deliberately trying to pass for the opposite sex rather than, say, buying male-pattern trousers simply because those have proper useful pockets like my mother does, I'd say the intent makes the difference.

Unlike skirts and dresses, which are (with very few exceptions) locked to the feminine.

Skirts are manly yo

o3o

What, Taser LizardLisk good to a memetic degree with that SP battery passive. Probably the single most versatile Defender too.

Yay got a 6* with today's freebie 10-pull ticket!

...and it was Aak. .-.
sigh
Better than nothing I guess, though on even brief parse that loon is going to be real damn tricky to use effectively.

Tei the Socially Awkward Penguin.

You are referring to Haiji

IDK man, seems p competent...

Tei's not very bright but she tries and that's what counts.

Tei the Socially Awkward Penguin.

Tei why are you such a huggable mess

But going further, Reunion can't hire them because PL is based in Lungmen and Reunion are considered terrorists.

Plus PL's bossman, Emperor the Immortal Rapper Penguin, is kind of a big shot in Lungmen and has zero reason to tolerate some punks torching his hood. In practice the Penguins are his bodyguard cum general-purpose goon squad whose services are for rent when he doesn't specifically need them for something.

r/EmbarassingParents

Riko has Mom's approval now tho :d

Crownslayer bullying.

Is there some special reason for that?

Crowny is the only boss enemy whose weight is the same as the random small grunts', which means she's fully susceptible to the push/pull Specialists AKA the Bully Squad.
Which means she routinely gets introduced to deep dark holes in certain stages.
To speak nothing of 4-4 which is pretty much tailor-made for dicking around with her.

Bonus round courtesy of Ange's antigravity skill feat. Mephisto, who entirely deserves it. :D

The senpai is probably just playing along Miku to tease Kyouko

Kindred spirits probably. In a lot of ways, IYKWIM ( ಠ ͜ʖ ಠ)

Mind you wouldn't be too surprised if Nana-sempai was Miku's Plan B on the off chance Kyouko achieves Final Form Useless Lesbian until graduation :v

Wow, that's pure thirst right there

Girl gonna need a fire hydrant for how thirsty she is

Found Miku's image song

There's also the exceptionally rare Robot tag which results in the 1-star operators Lancet-2 and Castle-3. While they're pretty niche in battle, they do have very useful base skills.

They're also cute. :3
