    Managed to get Ascended Laegjarn, on top of also getting a Shinon for that sweet Deadeye fodder for her.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Up to 25 summons, also got a Laegjarn, hoping to get a Volke and a good Boon Marcia (though want as many as possible so I can +10 Marcia)

    2. Yemachu

      Yemachu

      She was among one of my free summons on the banner. Not really interested in any of the other featured characters, so I can save back up again after failing yet again to add Summer Tana to my barracks (Morgan gave Young Lyon "Atk/Res Solo 4" and "Atk/Res Menace", Perceval has been turned into a combat manual that I still need a target for).

    3. Azure

      Azure

      Also managed to get a couple of Marcias (1 at +Spd, and 1 at +Atk) and a Volke at +Spd, as well as a Brave Lyn merge. Volke is probably going to be foddered off to Sothe or Ylgr for Lethality and either Times Pulse or Null-Follow Up. Will probably fodder off one Marcia to Summer Norne for Unbound Lance. Did want to get an Astrid as she was one of my most used units in Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, but no luck there.

  2. Thanks to the third anniversary gift of 333 Grails I didn't have to wait to Tuesday to finish my next +10. The Combat Manual update next month is going to help a lot to finish my first 5*+10 as Celica looks to be one which can be obtained quickly.

      Ayyy, need to get a picture but I got my +10 Young Azura from that too

  3. While my brother has been hospitalised for appendicitis. Not the thing you generally want to hear right after you get up.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Ah dang hope things go well

      He got out of surgery last night with no issues, so all that remains is recovery.

  4. Had a weird dream last night where I for some reason was back at my high school, despite kinda dropping out when I was 15/16 and it still being 2020. Could've been a class reunion or something. Anyway, I was in the cafeteria, and for some reason a panini cost £13.50 and had to be order alongside potatoes. I'm not sure why a school would ever think a child could afford a £13 sandwich, or that anyone would think that a good side to a sandwich would be boiled potatoes.

    1. (o ×)

      (o ×)

      So the cost is exorbitant, but boiled potatoes are good with anything

      i think you visited an american school in your sleep, my dude.

    First 5* +10 dancer is finished. Now to grind out Forging Bonds to finish off Ninja Hana.

    1. Azure

      Azure

      6sm9Amu.jpg

      And 3 hours later she is done. Now to decide who to do next? Got enough copies to get Sakura, Seteth, Adult Tiki and Cecilia to +10.

    2. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Having a +10 dancer is really helpful tbh lets you take some risks since they can take some hits now

  6. Well, Ninja Hana is going to be my next Grail Project after Petrine is done. 36/40 offensive spread is nice especially with a Brave weapon which grants +4 Spread. Not really fussed on any of the banner units, except maybe Lyn for Arena.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      I'm happy to see Zihark and Laevatein is super cute so want both of them

    2. Azure

      Azure

      I'm probably going to be summing green and red for merges for M!Morgan and Nicole so getting either of them would be nice. Put knowing how my summoning on Green usually goes Im going to get a couple of Yarnes instead of a focus unit.

  7. DocTT08.jpeg

    Summoning on the new banner getting 2 Neimi (1 from the 40 pulls) and Ascended Joshua, as well as getting my final 2 merges for Sothe. Grinding out Forging Bonds should get me everything I need to get the final merge for Summer Norne as well.

    1. Azure

      Azure

      h7zATny.jpeg

      Grinding is now done. Just need 300 Grails for the final merge on Julius, then I can figure out my next Grail Project. Averse would probably be the quickest choice as she is already at +5 and unlike the other choices of Summer Leonie and Ninja Shamir will actual get a refine. Though for now I can focus on spending feathers to merge Seliph. Plus with the upcoming banner forbweapon refines I may be able to get the final 2 merges for Adrift Female Corrin.

    2. Yemachu

      Yemachu

      Recently finished merging Aversa to +10. I would like to give her "R Duel Flying 4", so she becomes usable for scoring… but I don't have a  (spare) Palla. She will have to make do with "HP +5" for now.

      Currently working on Ninja Shamir. Gave her "Flashing blade 4" (and "Null follow-up") so she can deal quite a bit of true damage. Only need about 150.000 feathers to finish merging her.

      After that I will probably work on finishing to merge Natasha and Colm, though that requires me to first summon respectively 6 and 11 more copies.

       

  8. Managed to do a solo Zangoose run of Emerald, beating Wallace at level 69, and Stephen at 73. Steven was annoying because of Skarmory. Couldn't Toxic me which was good, but Zangoose needs 5 turns to kill Skarmory, 3 for Swords Dance and 2 for Return. Tate and Liza were also annoying as double battles in a solo run are a pain. Getting Swords Dance super early though made most of the game trivial.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Now I wanna try with Seviper....

    2. Azure

      Azure

      Seviper could be fun, probably harder due to a shallow move pool and only Double Team as a stat booster. The better Sp.Atk and access to Earthquake is a boon, since Zangoose's best move against Steel and Rock is Dig, since Brick Break is locked behind the Trainer Hill stuff, and 60 base Sp.Atk isn't good enough late game for the type coverage Zangoose has.

      Anyway, done a Rayquaza run, and obviously preformed better in pretty much everything apart from Roxanne and Glacia. Needed to be level 15 for Roxanne since that was when I could 1 shot the Geodudes, as the Nosepass will out speed if I am hit by 2 or more Rock Tombs and the Nosepass takes at least 3 hits of Twister; and Glacia requires the first Seleo to cooperate and use Hail turn 1 instead of Ice Ball, as I needed 3 Bulk Ups/Dragon Dances to KO the Walrein, could've used Thunder/Thunderbolt, but I needed Dragon Claw for Drake, and Earthquake is just better against Sydney and Phoebe. Steven took a bit of trail an error, but after picking up Substitute the Skarmory was a joke, and the only other issue was Claydol since it was a 2 or 3 hit KO with Surf. Would've been nice if Rayquaza could learn a move to boost it's Sp.Atk, or Dragon was classed as Physical.

  9. JuaMW9j.jpeg

    Another +10 done, and unless I get lucky and pull either 2 Ingrids or 2 Adrift F!Corrins, Seliph should be my next +10 as I only need the 60k feathers for his final 3 merges, plus hopefully a +Atk copy.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Julius is a surprising one

    2. Azure

      Azure

      Liked his refine and since I already had him at +2, just decided to build him. He does fill a nice role as a Res tank, which I am admittedly not that lacking in, but damage reduction is fun to use.

  10. Go to record a bit to see audio levels for when I move my blog over to video and either my mic quality has gotten worse since I used it, or I am quieter than I thought I was. Have to increase my speakers to about 60 in order to somewhat make out what I am saying as opposed to my usual 6. Have only actually used the mic once so I have no clue whether or not it is actually fine.

    1. yui

      yui

      the secret is to just scream every line like you're getting chainsawed in half

    2. Azure

      Azure

      Well, after fiddling around with mic settings, I've got the problem solved. If it can pick up my mouse clicking then it can pick up my voice. Now to wait for Premiere to finish downloading so I can fiddle around with it.

  11. eWMiOUo.jpg

    First build of the new event in Azur Lane and I get the headliner of it. It like when I started back during the Idolm@ster collab and got Chihaya right away.

  12. Finished my Mozu run of Fates, and while it did take around 20 minutes longer than Felicia, due to doing one more map to bring Mozu up to a level where she can actually do something, and me being stubbon on chapter 26 trying to get all the chests, did end up being overall easier as I had to reset less.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      I mean this in the best way but Azure you're insane.

    2. Azure

      Azure

      The more insane part is the Felixia run was the first time I actually done a run on Lunatic, since I pretty much exclusively play on Normal.

  13. Going through my pastures in Legends Arceus to release a bunch of Bergmites and Snorunts, and turns out I caught a shiny Bergmite without realizing it. If it wasn't for the notice that comes up when you go to release a shiny I would never have noticed.

    1. The Chayncemaniac

      The Chayncemaniac

      When I was doing that shortly after I caught my shiny Carnivine, I almost did the same thing

    2. Azure

      srEhQed.jpeg

      Managed to beat Arceus, so everyone deserves a rest, except Arcanine who was chilling in the Pastures. Did wipe a few times as I suck at timing my dodges correctly. Samurott was MVP during the fight, tanking two Grass-type Judgements. Sure he was level 100 with maxed EVs, and I was kinda lucky in the fact my Arceus didn't have a Sp.Atk boosting nature. Garchomp as managed to nearly 1 shot the 2nd round of combat but missed by about 10% and got 1 shot in return. Palkia then came in and finished it off. No time to slowly grind out the Pokedex for the few requests I have left.

  14. Re-obtained all the achievements for the Mass Effect trilogy, bar the one which requires multiplayer. Mass Effect 2 on Insanity was probably the hardest, especially the early game. Now to complete my  ME2 and 3 runs where Kaiden isn't dead.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Now that you mention it I'm unsure I ever saved Kaiden

    2. Azure

      Azure

      I think I've only used Kaiden once and that was when I decided to start a non-imporred file on ME2 as FemShep. Have never really kept him alive since I usually play as MaleShep and romance Ashley in the first game. Then I rarely play the first game again since the combat is kinda clunky.

  15. Finished my Anna run in Fates, and despite not playing for a few months I still managed a time of 5:11 which is 10 minutes faster than Elise's. Did buy/obtain more 2 more skills though.

    1. LordCowCow
    2. Azure

      Azure

      And after spending all day doing another one I have done a run in sub 5 hours with Flora. Sure it was probably by a few seconds since I can only go off what it says on the battle save but still, turns out soloing the game with Corrin is more efficient than using 2 or more units. Flora was suppose to be a hard one since it is a chapter 23 recruitment, yet due to late recruitment ends up making the game easier as I'm not having to split healing items between two units.

  16. Tested positive with Covid yesterday, and thankfully it isn't too bad. So far not as bad as the cold I had just after Christmas, as I still have the energy to drag myself out of bed. Was really hoping to get through the entire thing without catching it.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Ah dang hope you feel better soon

    2. Azure

      Azure

      I'm probably going to be fine as it isn't that bad currently. It has given me the opportunity to catch up on reading through my visual novel backlog while I can't be at work. Am annoyed as I was planning to take my computer and link it to the TV in the sitting room to watch the Nijigasaki live this weekend, as now I just have to use my monitors instead.

  17. Rinkah's run is now done, with a 6 minute lead on Hana, with Kana ending up a level higher, but using 1 less skill in total. Rinkah's kinda sucky strength growth was annoying as she could do bugger all to Generals and other Oni Chieftans.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      Doesn't Hammer help with that? Though yeah she's got weird stats. Speed and Defense is a weird combo

    2. Azure

      Azure

      It probably would, but since I keep money for skills and stats boosters, and the only Hammer drop requires going through killing stuff on chapter 19, it will impact the time it isn't worth it. Plus Corrin/Kana can deal with them better. Could use the Armourslayer, since I drop an Arms Scroll on characters after I reclass into Dread Fighter. Though at the end it doesn't really matter as it just devolves into using the S-support partner as a offensive skill bot for Norhian Trust, and using Replicate Kana as a healer when needed.

  18. Time to do a Mono-type Grass Blaze Black 2 challenge. Roxie, Burgh and Skyla are going to be a pain. But hopefully this time I won't die to much to Clay and his damned Excadrill. Cause if this hack has taught me anything it is I hate sand teams.

    1. Azure

      Azure

      My first hurdle has appeared. Getting a good nature Lotad as that line is my only Surf and Waterfall access in the game. My current one has a Careful nature so -Sp.Atk which ain't great. But despite being a 10% encounter rate I have seen 1. I've found about 10 Seedot who also have a 10% encounter rate. 5 Ralts with a 5% rate, a Makey with 4%, and even a damn Bagon which has a 2% rate.

    2. Azure

      Azure

      Fight against Roxie was annoying. Barely won with my team being level 29, 30, and 33. Both my Leavanny and Servine died, and Lombre was poisoned and had 5 health left when the battled ended. Maybe doing this in with the Challenge Key active was a mistake.

  19. I am enjoying Pokémon Sword a fair bit more than I was expecting, since I've already clocked 12 hours on it. Compared Ultra Sun where I got bored very quickly. Max Raid battles are fun.

    1. Azure

      Azure

      Well finished the game and it was fun. While I was over-leveled for most of the gyms, due to having a bunch of fun doing Max Raid battles, I ended up in par with the trainers during the battles leading up to the Champion fight. With the exception of my Gardevoir which ended up at level 74. Also your winning team ends up as the title screen background. Now to beging the collecting every article of clothing.

    2. Nyx

      Nyx

      Gotta try 'em all! Nah but really, I looked forward more to buying out all the clothes in Sun and Moon can completing either Pokedex.

  20. Found my old DS Lite along with an Action Replay. Surprisingly the DS still has charge, so time to load up Pearl and cheat in a Manaphy egg to clear the game with.

    1. LordCowCow

      LordCowCow

      I remember trying to play a game on the DS more recently and wondering how I ever played with such a small screen

    2. Azure

      Azure

      After using the DS Lite for a bit it is not completely functional. The touch screen refuses to work most of the time so I couldn't actual start a new file on Pearl as I couldn't press the button on the Pokéball. So outside of getting using the action replay to get the Manaphy egg I'll probably be using my 2DS which does make the top screen slightly smaller to match the DS. Screen size though it's fine, feels the same as when I'm using an emulator due to the distance from the screen.

  21. Started a randomised Pokemon White 2 run and get a Gible starter, which gives Hugh a Klink. So of course the random moves Gible gets are all resisted by Klink. Then I head out to the first route and find a Garchomp, which Alpha the Gible did kill since it was a Mud-Slap vs Dual Chop. Then the second route has a Speed Boost/Dragon Dance Rayquaza, which died to a Rollout Luvdisc. Not event the second rival battle and it is already wild.

    1. Azure

      Azure

      The tale of Beta the Rayquaza killing Luvdisk was short. He died to a wild Combee.

    2. Azure

      Azure

      Well, that's the run over. I go to train in the dark grass and end up in a double battle against a Blitzle and Eelektrik. Turns out the Eelektrik had Wonder Guard and I had no Ground moves. So I was spamming the Run button and lost my Larion and Emolga. Then I get into a trainer battle against a Lillipup which uses Metronome and gets Frost Breath against my Gible. Didn't even reach Virbank.

  22. Started playing Among Us, and have only gotten one legitimate imposter win, as the rest of the time people quit.

    1. yui
    2. Thar

      Thar

      I literally don't even care about winning as an imposter. I'll just make the round as short as possible unless the crewmates manage to destroy each other, then that's just a perk.

  23. I need to get back into forum-based RPing at some point.

    1. Thar

      Thar

      Hell, I'm doing it, so why can't you?

    2. Azure

      Azure

      Laziness would probably be a part of it, and lack of inspiration for characters if I actually saw a RP I was interested in. Though the character problem is basically solved.

  24. yZuZSxL.jpg

    Got another +10 completed. Nearly have Saleh finished as well, though I'm limited by Grails. Plus I managed to get Summer Freyja in my first summoning circle which is also great.

    1. Yemachu

      Yemachu

      Cool. My "Saleh: Vernal Sage" is almost finished as well; only needing one more copy before he is at +10. Just have to wait for when he is available through limited time divine codes. Though I haven't really decided on his skills yet, so he currently has a somewhat random combination of stuff. How do you plan to build him?

    2. Azure

      Azure

      N6lbo4o.jpg

      This is him currently. Need more feathers to bring him to plus 8, then I just need the 450 Grails + the one from Codes. He also has Firesweep Axe + Darting Blow 4 from Gerik.

  25. Decide to boot up the Xbox 360 for the first time in years to play Mass Effect only to discover we've had to replace it at some point so I no longer have access to my profile and also can't find the disk for Mass Effect 1 anywhere so instead time to replay Halo Reach.
