Honestly I love the way things have been going. I enjoy the new class concepts and weird tactics they bring to the table while the old characters are still 100% viable.

I like the new AK, straightforward mechanics/archetypes are boring and repetitive.

I'm ok with the new arknights, but please, tone down how much damage those new unit can deal. It's unnessary ridiculous.

I love the new arknights. I think if everything was like it was back then I might have not found any interest in it last September when I started

@@_Kettenkrat Tbf, outside of Chalter recently at least. Not every operator since (outside of Mlynar) has as high of a consistent damage.

fake, needs at least 5 more paragraphs of text explaining the same thing but in a more convoluted way that makes you want to die midway through your reading

Problem is that HG is doing JUST THAT Had you seen SSS or Fire under the sand events? They are BEYOND unbalanced so that broken operators cant breeze trough them It made every other operator almost useless

​​​@@kyarumomochi5146 I would like to highlight that SSS is broken mechanically. And it doesn't exactly judge if the normal meta ops are good or not. For example the best OPs in SSS would be characters such as Passenger and GG. However those 2 aren't really in the contention for broken ops for the normal mode (GG could be but there are far more in the broken tier really). Similarly operators like Thorns and Ling, considered broken in standard content, struggle in SSS. Again this is due to how they designed SSS. SSS should not be considered an indicative of what their design philosophy is, events should. One of the best operators for Fire Within the Sand is Dorothy. Someone who is not considered broken and not even in the mind of most of the casual players (her delay non withstanding). So no, SSS and Fire within sands aren't balanced around "Broken" operators. They just end up promoting types of operators which may or may not include other strong operators. Besides for SSS, the farming doesn't even need you to clear all floors (and you only need all of them cleared once for some bonus rewards) and for Fire within the sand I'm pretty sure you don't need characters like Dorothy. Would the characters good at said mode make it easier? Probably. But it's not like we haven't since the start of arknights been doing stages without "optimal" operators. You use resources you have to find a solution to a problem. And yes, some problems may not be feasible for your account level or strength, however it does not mean the balancing of the game was at fault. It could simply be other factors. HG balance wise has done a good job at balance cause even with strong operators dropping that may or may not powercreep old ones, the old ones aren't really rendered "useless". People harp on how "Pozy does higher damage than Schwarz vs x boss" but it doesn't really mean I can't use schwarz if i have her. Would she do less damage against said boss than pozy? Maybe. But if at the end of the day she does kill said boss doesn't that mean the job she is meant to do still can be done? Same is true for other cases of "powercreep" usually. Other cases which may not be covered can end up being improved or fixed by modules. TL;DR The game isn't perfect, but as of right now it hasn't delved into any problematic areas (Besides Limited banner amounts being high with spark being the same but that's not the point here) EDIT: further context on SSS being broken It follows an extremely hostile design for anyone who is physical oriented. As the levels of difficulty increase defense and hp, but do not touch res. This leads to any arts unit that ignores or decreases arts res finding it a breeze. Chars that spam CC such as gnosis , Jaye , mizuki , etc would also find their usage higher due to the fact that buying time will lead to your arts dps doing more damage. This is why SSS has such a different metagame from most of the normal game. It's entirely designed in an imbalanced way. And it shouldn't be taken as an indicator of game design as most events before and after did not follow such an imbalanced approach.

@@blacklusternolegs Mate you kinda took my comment wrongly also had you never heard of "Meta compass" before? Thors is good in general content not CC IS or similar things as its litterally not his niche same thing with Ling SSS is just fundamentally broken and you either need a strong BROKEN carry like Irene or absurd synergies with absurd RNG with less stronger operators Also please dont tell me FUTS isnt balanced around broken operators lmfao game throws 50 big bobs at you with stat increase on day 3 and one of the bosses on the event has 700k hp Litterally everyone in CN is in agreement that HG is making absurdly hard events to cope with how strong the meta is Dorothy is used in FUTS because of her utility not because she is broken You can go open ANY is3 max difficulty or Most day clear on FUTS and you will see the same operators texas alter Mlynar etc and etc as they more than REQUIRE broken operators to make it clearable Litterally CCs themselves that existed since start of the game are proof that game is INDEED balancing stuff around broken operators and trying to limit them Weird that you are arguing against something that so widelly agreed up on

@@blacklusternolegs Also for your powercreep argument See you are not understanding what powercreep means Powercreep doesnt mean that X operators existence makes Y operator UNUSABLE it makes it so that Y operator is still usable but MUCH LESS practical and stronger then X operator and content gets harder around X operator wich effectively limits Y operators performance This is WHAT powercreep is And its why pozy mlynar texas alter and many completely powercreep their old archtype counterparts

@@kyarumomochi5146 "Thors is good in general content not CC IS or similar things as its litterally not his niche same thing with Ling" Just because Thorns does not see usage in max risk CC, does not mean he has not seen usage in CC at all, as he is one of the better ops to be used in daily risks. He is also one of the strongest to start off with, especially if you are utilizing a start such as VG + Guard. My point of bringing it up was to show that specific operators are better in some places and not in others due to roles prioritized in said areas. Which shall be followed up on in "SSS is just fundamentally broken and you either need a strong BROKEN carry like Irene or absurd synergies with absurd RNG with less stronger operators" Yes I did say that SSS IS fundamentally broken. And note that this "fundamentally" broken mode asks you to use specific kind of operators, namely ones that can spam their skills, benefit off of fast attacks, are arts oriented, ignore res/lower res, have slowdown/cc, or all of the above. Basically acting like some events and other content where specific things are better than others but taken to an extreme. This still doesn't make the mode good btw, however the mode does NOT require you to completely finish it to farm module materials. "Also please dont tell me FUTS isnt balanced around broken operators lmfao" If by FUTS you mean FWTS then atleast from what ive heard from individuals playing CN, its not a event for newcomers. Now does this mean meta ops are required or not is hard for me to say without playing it. From what I have heard it is a points based system of farming, so you do not ever need to go beyond day 1 even to farm the event out. Just that day 1 spam farming is slow as hell. "game throws 50 big bobs at you with stat increase on day 3 and one of the bosses on the event has 700k hp" To quote my CN Friend who had some choice words after reading your comment "fwts does not "throw 50 big bobs with stat increase on day 3" and all the bosses have 500k+ hp in there because you're not meant to instakill them. who wouldve known that better units are better and people use better units more you can literally beat futs by just helidropping units + dorothy unironically after building up your base and getting all the upgrade all buildings(even outside of main base) have more hp/def, less dp costs main base has more hp/def, also using food correctly is key to making your life even easier in futs like theres -8 dp +10% atk and guess what thats one of the easiest foods to make. literally instantly make any unit good instantly with just that alone" "Dorothy is used in FUTS because of her utility not because she is broken" Uh.... Yes her utility is great thats why she was highly recommended for that mode. "You can go open ANY is3 max difficulty or Most day clear on FUTS and you will see the same operators texas alter Mlynar etc and etc as they more than REQUIRE broken operators to make it clearable Litterally CCs themselves that existed since start of the game are proof that game is INDEED balancing stuff around broken operators and trying to limit them" This argument is so flawed I do not know where to start. Firstly. IS3 Max Difficulty is not required. Neither is CC Max. IS3 you require at most Difficulty 7 for the relevant content and for CC you require Risk 18. These things have been done,atleast CC side by literal teams that arent even E2ed in some cases. You can argue those "non e2 teams used such broken ops" but I am pretty sure I need not explain how feeble that explanation is. Alternatively you can go watch guides on how people beat them using 4*s, nicheknights. CC from a LONG Time for the "Required rewards" category has been doable by several ways not needing multiples of "broken operators" if any at all. Secondly if you want to argue that IS3 max and CC max is proof that they are balancing stuff around broken operators then its a flawed argument simply because of the fact that these are optional high risk endeavors built for people who want to push themselves. A game being "balanced around something" usually means that whatever said "something" is, is required to be done to experience the content the game offers. None of the events in general are balanced around using only the "broken"/"meta" operators. Especially not to the point where your entire team HAS to be them. There are several clears not only on YT but also billi billi showing low rarity clears, and for particularly hard challenges, 1 support 6* clears. This should highlight how this game isn't exactly balanced around the "broken"/"meta" operators. Optional Hard content is simply a challenge for players. It should never be considered the norm or assumed to be how devs are balancing the game around, especially when none of the standard events such as Reed event, MH event or the like follow a similar "Power" scaling. Powercreep doesnt mean that X operators existence makes Y operator UNUSABLE it makes it so that Y operator is still usable but MUCH LESS practical and stronger then X operator and content gets harder around X operator wich effectively limits Y operators performance " I .... literally said this? My point I highlighted was that people treat powercreep as the end all be all, whereas the "Powercreeped" operators are still usable in content. Is it harder to use them than their "powercreeped" versions? Possibly. Not impossible however.

As a fellow based Hunting Horn user I do indeeds agree chief

IS2 Is honestly a really well balanced roguelike on its own. Every class is good, some whose absence can make certain stages way harder, and funnily enough I find medics and defenders saving the most runs. Like that lost puppet boss? That stage sucks if you can't either stall the boss indefinitely or out heal the mist and arts damage onslaught, but part of it being balanced is that the stage is still clearable without them. Defenders/Medics also make those lancer stages easier, since not many easily obtained operators want to tank 2-4 lancers in a row, or can even survive that without heals.

Not to mention IS2 monthly contracts which is literally atm machine because you can literally use target operators at their full power for free (hehehe E2 max level M3 unlocked modules) and easily get to target destination (home remnant or something) without any extra healers or defenders

@@SUPAH_SUPAH_SUPAH That's fair

So they got... powercrept??

@@kyarumomochi5146 Powercreep has a specific meaning, and while it is related to the metagame it is not the same. Powercreep happens when a unit that previously represented the apex of its niche is rendered obsolete by the introduction of a new unit that occupies the same niche but provides more benefits. As an example, we can take a niche that is currently not relevant in the meta at all - ability to attack allied operators. Maybe Aak is currently the best character for attacking allies, but the niche of attacking allies is not relevant in the meta. However, if Arknights were to come out with a new operator that attacks allies more times or deals more damage then that would represent powercreep within the niche of attacking allies regardless of whether attacking allies was ever relevant within the Arknights metagame. By the same token, we can imagine that perhaps Arknights might enter an era where maps have lots of high ground and barely any low tiles at all. If that happened then the meta would be dominated by ranged units and the relevance of melee units would fall... but none of them would be power-creeped because power-creep isn't meta! They are completely different things!

@@glitch5048 cat assistants in monster hunter universe not really an arknights thing

The only good one

English is not my first language and I may have gotten some ideas intertwined and badly explained my thoughts. But I think this type of design-powercreep (in regards to enemies) encourages possessing multiple Operators to respond to many different types of scenarios. Some operators are just plain OP (Surtr) and basicaly fit any situation, but appart from these occasions I think it pushes players to experiment. Wherein new operators become interesting: new stuff to play around with. Especially when they conveniently fit exquisitely well in the new event they just released with.

They other aspect i somewhat touched and did not expand upon is the fact that AK is a tower defense game. There's three core elements you can apply in a TD run in order to succeed. Deal more damage, Block more enemies and have utility to control the enemies (CC, buffs and debuffs). The most effective matter to clear a TD lvl will always be more DPS. Safer, faster and especially flashier. Which is why in my opinion AK is veering more and more towards a DPS meta. They know this is what players want. Efficiency. So now their baseline seems to be OK: EVERYONE IS A DPS NOW. EVERYONE IS VIABLE FOR EFFICENCY. BUT THIS ONE IS TANKY. THIS ONE SLEEPS. THIS ONE ALSO HEALS. So basicaly out of the 3 base elements they can put on a unit, be it DPS, Tankiness and Support, they now makke it everyone can DPS and now they can create operators with strange and fun gimmicks without fear.

I agree, I feel like by comparison to other gacha's Arknights has much more potential for creativity, which isnt being used. Stuff like the water in Dossoles was a smart idea, having only ranged tiles be unaffected while penalizing lane holders. I remember their being a stage where a fireball floats around and somebody cleared it using only 4 snipers. Or the poison fog, turrets etc. There are occasional enemies who do interesting stuff like stun or bind, the suicide bombers, invisible enemies, freeze, emperors blade farts. If every stage had a bunch of stuff like that it would be pretty interesting.

For me, Texas if just a fun new addition to the team, not a replacement for Red or Kafka or Mont3r.

Sorry but many of the operators you listed are already powercrept SA no longer breaks the game in half He is not even close to doing so That title is Mlynars

@@kyarumomochi5146 That's why I draw attention to SA's talents as opposed to his damage. There is no operator in the game that provides as much utility in specific situations as SA. In fact, there are only five operators who can reveal invisible enemies - - SA, via Eagle Eyes talent - Tsukinogi, via her S1 - Elysium, via his S2 - Scene's summons - Horn's S1 (which can't target invisible units by default so it's almost pointless) Out of all of these, SA is the only one who has completely unconditional invisibility reveal, and covers by far the largest AoE. That's not to say the other operators are bad, Elysium especially is quite effective here, but Monitor still only has a 15 second duration and can only reveal four enemies at a time. Again - it's not bad at all, it's really strong! Especially since it reduces def as well. But it's still extremely accurate to say that SA's Eagle Eyes talent provides utility that very few other operators can even touch, and certainly gives him a place that Mlynar literally cannot occupy. This is why I think that Eagle Eyes is a design problem, because so many challenges (especially in CC) rely on "X unit is now invisible" which SA essentially removes as a challenge. Because of this utility, Mlynar *has* to powercreep SA in some ways. Even disregarding that, saying that "SA no longer breaks the game" is just plain false. It's not as if Mlynar's release made SA do less damage somehow - he's just as effective as he always was, and nothing is going to change that. My overall point is that powercreep is necessary to make new operators viable, and I see them as sort of a "fixed" version of old ones. I don't think that any operator would ever be released with a talent like Leader (SA's other talent, which reduces redeploy time by 10% before potentials are added) or Eagle Eyes because they affect the game in such a fundamental way. And if I had to pick between most of the new operators and most of the old ones, I would personally pick the new ones. There's nothing really exciting to me about entirely invalidating a risk tag because I happen to own SA so invisibly straight up doesn't matter, just like there's nothing exciting about placing Thorns and waiting for Destreza to charge. All that said, I don't think simple operators are bad, and I ultimately like the contrast that's being created between operators like SA and Mlynar, because they each have a unique tactical role. SA isn't holistically the best operator to take in many cases because there is now a character that does more AoE physical damage than him, but at the same time, Mlynar can't provide the utility that SA does through the Eagle Eye and Leader talents. That's what I want to see - more choices in team composition.

Kinda impossible with the rumor of the Chinese anti fraud/gambling(?) law prohibiting "false advertisement" of products, in which straight nerfs and buffs kinda fall on that category somehow since it makes the products--in our cases, operators--is "different" than what they're marketed as. Take my word with a grain of salt tho, I just heard this as a rumor from long time ago. But seeing Arknights ultimate stubbornness in rebalancing things since releasing Surtr (and only to double down by releasing the broken Texalter), this might as well be the truth

Gavalter is basically just better Blaze, but i find her vastly more fun to play both with S2 and S3, compared to just Blaze s2 which was basically just turning battles into an idle gacha to an extent. I also think Myolner is much more interesting than SilverAsh because of his charge attack mechanic and 0 block. Same with Spelter (+XModule) and Specter S2. Penance has crazy shields, but no healing and can only keep up those huge shields by being fed fodder mobs continously. Compared to Mudrock who can also auto battle with S2 plus 20% health from shields. Im not saying most of these characters are better, I just think their more interesting and less 1 note.

SIege is way more tankier than Texas. The way to play with Siege is to drop her on the ennemy spawn since she can take the hit.
